Hangman's Carneros Syrah
Carneros, North Coast, California, USA
From a single block in the Hudson Vineyard. This is a Hermitage clone of 93% Syrah cofermented with 7% whole cluster Viogner. Clove and cinnamon spice jump from the glass in this mid weight ruby wine. The spice carries into the palate where it’s met with a blast of black fruit and pepper. The medium acidity punches in on the back which helps carry it into a long finish where you get a bit of the french oak and medium tannin. This will only get better as both of those integrate.
