We blended Pommard and Calera clones from the vineyard to make this fantastic Russian River offering. Bright, fresh raspberry and cherry pie flavors play a central role with a vanilla and tobacco finish backing it up.

Our 2015 Syrah comes from one of our favorite spots in all of Dry Creek Valley - Famighetti Vineyard. Mark and Sheila Farmer, along with their vineyard dog Elsa, farm a small benchtop of these syrah vines almost 1,000 feet high above the valley floor.
