2022 Syrah

$90

Sensory Experience

Our 2022 Syrah is for those who like to go especially big. Impossibly concentrated blackberry fruit aromas dominate with minor key notes of brisket and salumi. Anchored in tar and earth with grippy tannins, the wine brings brute as well as balance.

Vintage

2022 stands out as one of the most unique vintages in recent Napa Valley history. A long summer of warm days and cool nights came to a crescendo with an impressive five-day heatwave in September. The heat spell eventually gave way to more mild weather through October, allowing the grapes to develop a more refined, elegant character.

Winemaker Notes

With our Syrah, we aim to create a wine that cannot be ignored – or forgotten. Powerful, sexy, and mysterious, this wine makes a lasting impression. This barrel-selected, 100% Syrah is deeply saturated in color with intensely concentrated flavors. We let our grapes hang notably long to achieve maximum ripeness, and meticulously select barrels from our finest blocks.
