These more extreme, cool sites highlight the racy finesse and subtle aromatics of the grape, while still retaining some of the smoky, spicy qualities of Syrah that make it so enjoyable. We focus on the terroir-oriented attributes of these sites for this special limited bottling.Terre Rouge and Easton Wines ... See MoreSee Less

Full body and firm tannins build great structure to pair with indulgent proteins and give it the stuffing to age.Terre Rouge and Easton Wines ... See MoreSee Less

In the mouth, cassis and black cherry have a wonderful deep earthy backbone and excellent acidity. Savory notes of herbs emerge on the finish that seems to ooze out of the felt-like tannins that coat the mouth.Terre Rouge and Easton Wines ... See MoreSee Less
