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

It's no accident that grapes grown on Lee Hudson's Carneros District vineyard command among the highest prices of any grapes grown in Napa Valley. It's well suited for cold climate grapes, and Lee and his staff are among the most respected growers in the industry. Our Hudson Vineyard Syrah has become a benchmark over the past decade, and is widely considered to be one of the most successful examples of the variety. There's no magic formula here: it's a combination of a proper site, dutiful farming and inspired winemaking. Our 2006 Hudson Vineyard Syrah is old-world read more...

A nice nose with some sweet, woody spices but also fine plum and slightly candied dark cherry fruit. With air this really picks up a lot of candied ginger though, a touch of game and roasted green herb and sassafras edge are lurking - Very fluid in the mouth, fairly noticeable acids and polished tannins support a big somewhat spicy bitter cherry fruit and root beer toned mid-palate. Rather restrained and almost lean, lets say focused on the backend with a very nice, crisp finish, that reveals a bit of wood tannin splinteriness on the finish. Perhaps a touch simple and with a short finish but fresh and balanced 89pts

Ruby red color. Aroma is bright, slightly heated with a nice scent of blackberry jam. Flavors are potent, very bright ripe cherries with tannins hiding away until the finish, where they feature prominently alongside black licorice and leather.
