Country: US / Darien Vineyard
Variety: Syrah California
Winery: Nickel & Nickel / Russian River Valley
This is a good Syrah for drinking now, with rich berry, cherry, mocha, brown sugar and roasted meat flavors. The tannins are brisk, and there’s a nice cut of acidity. This is far from the winery’s best Darien Syrah, but it’s delicious.
