Wine Review: Garnet in color, this Syrah has inviting aromas of toffee and wet brick on the nose. On the palate, the wine is medium to full bodied and layered with chocolate, espresso, mocha and anise flavors. There is substantial fruit as well, paced by blackberry and cassis flavors. The medium oak and moderate tannins add structure, while the tannins are resolved and the finish is exceptionally long. Serve with grilled lamb chops. - Jeoff

Winemaker Notes: Our Syrah-Viognier shows ripe red fruit and licorice, subtle floral hints earth, raspberry jam, candied current, and cocoa. The long finish is dusty with focused tannins and subtle oak.
