SYRAH de la boue (922287)
GRAPES
Syrah
TASTING NOTES
Rhubarb and plum with spice and herbal tea on the nose. Confirmed on the palate, the tannins are supple and intense, with a striking balance of acidity that lengthens the finish.

From Winemaker Travis Todd:
Access to this fruit came from a parking lot conversation with our friend Lonnie Wright. We had come up short on yield in year one and were complaining about it in the parking lot while Lonnie was dropping off some fruit for another project. "You want some Syrah?" "Yes". And we are still getting fruit from his to this day. I had never made Syrah before, but have long had a love of Northern Rhone wines, so we just tried to make something that we would like. Turns out we love it. Retain and express the acidity, don't over extract, and try to make a full bodied wine with enough nuance to pair with salmon.
