Tasting Notes
Luscious, dark and jammy, the Edna Valley Vineyard Syrah is an intense wine that embodies the “bigger is better” philosophy. Black cherry and bramble-berry aromas dominate the nose and continue through the palate, braced by spicy black pepper, sage and smoke typical of cool climate Syrahs. Medium tannins support the intense flavors and rich mouthfeel which stretch across the finish.
With great extraction and smoky, brambly flavors, this Syrah stands up to the bold flavors of the barbecue. Try with the local favorite of spicy “Santa Maria-style” tri-tip folded in a sandwich and topped with salsa.
