"The 2022 Syrah North Coast is made from the leftovers from all their vineyards, and this wine takes things to the next level in terms of aging and quality. It has serious game, with notes of fresh lavender, blackberries fresh, and gravelly earth. Medium to full-bodied, it has good length and is showing well, with ripe tannins and a classic note of mouthwatering, mineral tones. A beautiful wine, it's going to show its best over the next 5-7 years."

"The 2022 Syrah North Coast was fermented with whole clusters and matured in used, 500-liter French oak puncheons for 10 months. The nose is bursting with pure scents of blackberry pie, violet, cracked black pepper and loamy earth. The medium-bodied palate features generous, floral fruit structured by clay-textured tannins and mouthwatering acidity that lures you in to take another sip."
