What to Expect

Syrah: One of the few grapes to really be a global success. Syrah combines a meaty core of ripe berry fruit with tones that range from herbal to peppery in a package that tends to be medium bodied with good acidity and softer tannins. With age the wines can gain lovely leathery and black olive notes that make them a great match for savory and gamy dishes.

Winemakers Notes

One More Reason: Dry Stack also supplies fruit to famed producers DuMol, PAX, and Bevan Cellars Porthos Tasting Notes: Inky ruby/purple in color, this wine has intense notes of blackberry, cr�me de cassis, licorice, crushed rocks and espresso beans that coalesce into the mid-palate of cocoa, violets, spice box, wild berries and impressive texture and mouth feel.

Sweet funky gaminess on the nose. Smooth in the mouth with maybe too much acidity on the front end. Some grittiness and spice on the finish but not much else. In a word - meh.

Spicy, gamey and slightly hot aromas with a good punch of earthiness. Flavors are a nice blend of red and black fruit, with savory notes of olive mixed with some dark chocolate.
