Perfectly balanced tannins combine with rich dark fruit and spice to envelope your senses. Enjoy with an herb-stuffed pork tenderloin. This Syrah has that combination of exotic floral notes, layers of different fruit flavors, and juicy rich viscous mouth feel and taste.


Detailed Info, Previous Vintage Notes, Reviews:

The first thing you notice is the inky, black color that fills your glass, followed by zesty blueberry and currant aromas with a hint of lilac blossoms. The fruit from Boushey Vineyard contribute rich, explosive blueberry flavors. Spice and cinnamon notes from an extensive barrel aging tantalize the palate. Tannins and acids intertwine nicely to frame an elegant, yet powerful mouth feel. The big structure of this wine will stand up to any roasted meat. Our favorite would be a roasted leg of lamb with fresh rosemary and whole garlic cloves. This wine will also pair nicely with roast beef accompanied by assorted herbed roasted vegetables.
