Deep color, a smoky nose, and dark, dark fruit on the palate coupled with the added backbone of additional oak reminds us more of a northern Rhone syrah than a “new-world”, Californian version.
Syrah is our workhorse red for food pairing, working exceptionally well with game meats, barbeque, and stews. We also like it with “funky” soft cheeses and even a dark chocolate dessert.
