2013 Weill Vineyard Syrah, Expositions 3-pack

Our third and final year of this experiment, as Syrah decline is unfortunately starting to ravage this wonderful vineyard. All sourced from the various aspects, clones, and blocks of Weill a Way Vineyard located at the mouth of Sonoma Valley, these wines are a love-letter to the LaLa wines (La Landonne, La Turque and La Mouline) of Guigal in Cote Rotie. Exposition One comes from clone 470 on a steep west facing hill, saw 100% whole-cluster, and is free of the perfumed shadings of Viognier. Exposition Two comes from clone 877 and was 50% destemmed and cofermented with 8% Viognier. Exposition Three saw scant whole-cluster inclusion, 16% Viognier, and is the most rounded and headily scented of the wines. Only 125 cases were made of each of these wines, and if last year was any indication, these will certainly be among the highest-demand wines we have released. $180
