title: La Clarine Farm 2011 Suma Kaw Syrah (Sierra Foothills)
description: The Suma Kaw Syrah from Hank Beckmeyer is an intriguing combination of great site and experimental winemaker. It's woody and herbal with a menthol sheen and an unexpectedly bright crispness contrasted by dark, savory meat and smoke. A wine that'll start conversations, enjoy it with roasted, herb-encrusted meats—the culinary equivalent of the wine.
variety: Syrah
designation: Suma Kaw
