description: The Beaux is Walter Dacon's American-oaked Syrah (then why the French name?). It is the lightest, most feminine of the trio of Dacon Syrahs, yet also the most aromatic and interesting. There are notes of flower and leaf not found in the other wines, perhaps because the barrels were used with more restraint. I like the violets-and-chocolate imprint it leaves in the back of the mouth.
variety: Syrah
designation: C'est Syrah Beaux
