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

2005 Joel Gott Syrah In a glass this Syrah shows ruby red and purple color, aromas of violets, sweet spices, blueberry and cassis. In the mouth the tannins are sweet, with a lush juicy mid-palette and flavors of raspberry, plum and a minerality that shows its terrior. This wine is a wonderful balance of acid and tannin, which create a sweet, upfront friendly drinking wine. Enjoy this youthful, vibrant, food friendly wine now or wait 6 months and see how the luscious tannins develop! 95% Syrah, 3% Mourvedre, 2% Petite Sirah
