This Foxen vintage is part of their Rhône style portfolio of wines. It's a co-fermented 82% Syrah and 18% Viognier blend from the Vogelzang vineyard. That unusual pairing leads to some very interesting flavors on the tongue - stone fruit and light red berry in a medium bodied juicy red wine. This one came in my December shipment and is always a wonderfully drinkable wine. ~$44 | #foxen#syrah#santaynez#vogelzang
On the eyes: Day bright crimson red, clear and medium concentration. Med stain, med tears, no gas/floc.
On the nose: A touch of violet and delicate herbaceousness rounded by pluot, mission fig, and toasty notes. Med+ alcohol.
On the tongue: Med tannin, med+ acid, med+ alcohol, med body. Floral, stewed plums, figs, and red currents with a clean oaky finish. A nice Rhône style that's a bit chewy with a lovely long finish. — 8 years ago
