description: Co-fermented with 3% Viognier, this single-vineyard Syrah aims at the Northern Rhône. It's very dry and tannic, with a crunch of acidity, and there are powerfully ripe, deep flavors of blackberries, cherries, carob, leather and plums. Reminds me of a young Qupe Bien Nacido. Tight and closed now, with lots of astringency, but should develop over the next five to seven years.
variety: Syrah
designation: Parkinson Vineyard
