Plaisance Ranch 2012 Papa Joe’s Private Stash Syrah (Applegate Valley)

Country: US / Papa Joe’s Private Stash
Variety: Syrah Oregon
Winery: Plaisance Ranch / Applegate Valley

Grown in a rather cool part of the Applegate Valley AVA, this offers aromatics of cured meat, peppery herb and a dash of iron ore. The fruit leans toward black cherry, and streaks of coffee and cola add to the complex finish. Drink now through 2025.
