Drew Family Cellars
Perli Vineyard Syrah
Mendocino Ridge, North Coast, California, USA
NYAS: Not Your Average Syrah. This is idealist cool climate California Syrah and it shows in its translucent, natural wine color and high tone aromatics. It's brethren are Failla and Copain. Opening notes of Violet's and blackberry, smoky campfire, green olive and sandalwood. Sharp and directed on the palette with flavors of deep cherry, plum, blackberry and cracked black pepper. Intense but light on its feet. Benchmark producer

Sep 8th, 2015This ones got character. Lost at sea with me and whole bunch of bitches from the northern rhone she seems exotic and she's speaking a different language. Zingy, acidic, bright...yet with concentration and zest. I can see her peppery and leather genetics in her eyes. I only wish I'd stayed sober enough to get closer to her and enjoy all of her nuances. A good rating because I feel like opening another just to repeat the experience. Very different I must say.
