En Cerise Vineyard Syrah
These wines are the most confounding wines I’ve ever had. Certainly singular but that’s about the best thing I can say about it.

Aug 30th, 2019Pours purple in color. ON THE NOSE: stewed jam, clove, anise and tar. ON THE PALATE: dark fruit, smoke, plum, and earth. Tannins are still here ten years later. Medium body medium finish.

Oct 3rd, 2014High fidelity in all regards, this is vibrant in four lacy dimensions. For Syrah, it’s currently showing the side of sweet spices, smoked meats, olives, violets and mere hints of herbs. Little in the way of blood, earth, horse, or reductive qualities.

Jun 2nd, 2019Unbelievable. Very fruit forward for a Syrah, but well balanced. Supposedly named En Cerise because it tastes like cherries—appropriately if so.
