The Quarternarium Syrah is sourced from equal parts of the Den Hoed, Lawrence, Red Heaven and Stony Vine Vineyards. This underwent roughly 25% whole cluster fermentation. This inky colored Syrah begins with aromatics reminiscent of tangerine, black tea, black cherry and sea salt, showing some really nice aromatic range. Plush and voluptuous, the wine shows characteristics of Earl Grey tea, black olive, black cherry, coffee grounds and smoked meat flavors. Decadent and delicious, this is drinking well now and should continue do so over the course of the next few years. (Best 2017-2025) - October, 2017 (OB)
