2019 Porter Creek Syrah, Russian River Valley   

Shows rosemary, black and green olives, pepper and smoky bacon on the nose, followed by firm structure on the palate and a long finish. Co-fermented with about 4% Viognier, which rounds out the mouth feel and adds an extra dimension to aromatics. A dramatic wine coming from a very steep hillside vineyard growing in one of the cooler parts of Sonoma County.
