title: Aver Family Vineyards 2013 Homage Syrah (Santa Clara Valley)
description: Gamy roast lamb aromas meet blueberry and crushed bay leaf on the nose of this bottling—a shining example of Syrah from southern Santa Clara County. White pepper, thyme and graphite notes show on the palate, where a core of elderberry fruit core is enhanced by that feral, gamy quality.
variety: Syrah
designation: Homage
