Description

Syrah has to be one of life’s greatest joys, but few places on planet Earth are as ideally suited for Syrah as El Dorado County. Our steep, mountainous slopes and granitic soils; our dry, warm climate and temperate, breezy evenings… Syrah absolutely thrives here, making for versatile material for us to explore the spectrum of its personalities, and allowing us to make something complex and downright otherworldly.
