100% whole cluster. 4th leaf fruit. Tons of dark fruit, smoke, cracked black pepper, olive tapenade. Mouthwatering savory notes counterbalance the rich, dark fruit.
Beautifully balanced example of cooler climate CA Syrah that is wonderfully expressive at this early stage.

So much great savory fruit, dark cherry, hint if smoke, exotic spices. Supposedly there is a bit of Viognier added to the Syrah. Sadly Knez is no more, but the Syrahs they made were outstanding, and with such young vines. This was the 2012, so almost wish I had let it rest a few more years. Definitely going to miss these guys, they took Anderson Valley Syrah to another level.

Funk and barn on the nose, awesome tannic structure, loads of acidity. Super unique. Damn.
