2021 Syrah, Richards Vineyard

Harvested in the first week of October—two weeks later than 2020 and three weeks later than 2019—the extra time on the vine has resulted in an impressively aromatic Syrah. The wine reveals enticing notes of lavender, sage, and olive tapenade, with additional hints of blue fruits and Asian plum sauce emerging as it breathes. This complex Syrah deftly balances savory and fruity elements, creating a compelling profile.
