2015 North Coast Syrah

When we put together the North Coast Syrah blend, I am always channeling my favorite producers of St. Joseph and Crozes-Hermitage. I want a wine that is perfumed, spicy, peppery and delicious, something long on flavor and low on pretense. The lots that went into this wine saw between 0 and 100% whole-cluster inclusion, and some saw some co-fermented Viognier. Barrels of Hudson Ranch, Weill and Alder Springs that did not go into the vineyard designates, along with a few barrels from two other small vineyards in Sonoma, make up the final wine. Though we take great pride in the QPR of our Old Vine Zinfandel, this wine might be even better in that respect. Back up the truck, get your Syrah on! $19
