Westside Red

Forward yet not excessive despite the 16% alcohol.

Deep and tasty. One of my favorite paso wine makers.

One more Central Coast Syrah. PharaohMoans is from a 3 acre estate on Paso Robles Westside (the Salinas River Valley splits the area into Eastside and Westside). Guillaume Fabre is the winemaker and previously spent time at L’Aventure. The wine is 95% Syrah and 5% Grenache. As Jeb Dunnuck noted in his barrel tasting, “If you're craving lightweight aromas and flavors, look elsewhere.” This is the liqueur version of chocolate covered cherries, and a crème de cassis, kirsch, and mocha head-spinner that packs a wallop. Secondary baking spices and sandalwood add some complexity.

So delicious! Blackberry and chocolate, yum! ❤️

Complex mineraly depth. Truly lovely

Red fruit and Chocolate. Not a typical Syrah. Love it but needs a few more years.

Dark black fruits with lovely dry feel big bold and delicious

Placed highly in a recent Syrah (US) taste off.

Bespoke Collection.
