title: Acorn 2012 Alegría Vineyards Axiom Syrah (Russian River Valley)
description: From a field blend interplanted with Viognier, which accounts for 2% of the wine, this dense, thick expression of this burly variety exudes velvety blueberry and blackberry around almost impenetrable tannins, the leathery roughness still being sorted out. Cellar through 2020 to coax out its finer flavors of mocha and meat.
variety: Syrah
designation: Alegría Vineyards Axiom
