description: The Beaux is Walter Dacon's American-oaked Syrah, from a range of vineyards and AVAs. The oak is much in evidence, adding vanilla and pickle barrel flavors to the ripe, hefty (14.8% alcohol) grapes. Fruit flavors are blocky and ripe, plum and cherry bordering on raisin; and there is a lush streak of chocolate in the finish. This is a wide- open, forward and powerful style that will have great appeal to some palates. Drink up; don't cellar.
variety: Syrah
designation: C'est Syrah Beaux
