OUR ROCK STAR RED, THIS BABY HAS WON 4 DOUBLE GOLDS IN THE SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE. FREQUENTLY ONE OF THE TOP 3 SYRAH’S ENTERED IN THE MOST EXPENSIVE SYRAH CATEGORY IN THIS MOST REVERED COMPETITION. KNOWN IN FRANCE AS A COTE ROTIE (THIS MEANS BURNT HILLS, I THOUGHT IT WOULD LIKE OUR SUPER-HIGH MOUNTAIN VALLEY). IT’S A CO-FERMENT OF SYRAH WITH A LITTLE VIOGNIER (WE NORMALLY DO 3% VIOGNIER). CO-FERMENTING WITH VIOGNIER (AS OPPOSED TO BLENDING, WHICH HAPPENS AFTER FERMENTING), THE VIOGNIER CHANGES THE CHEMICAL STRUCTURE OF THE SYRAH, PRODUCING A DELICATE, HEADY, STUNNINGLY COMPLEX AND EXTRAORDINARY WINE, ARGUABLY ONE OF THE TOP SYRAHS IN THE USA. -SAM PILLSBURY |
