Venge 2011 Stagecoach Vineyard Block I4 Syrah (Napa Valley)

Country: US / Stagecoach Vineyard Block I4
Variety: Syrah California
Winery: Venge / Napa Valley

This is the winery’s second release of this 100% Syrah from the esteemed Stagecoach Vineyard. It’s enormously rich and opulent in blackberry, black cherry jam, chocolate, anise and pepper flavors. There’s plenty of new French oak, but the wine easily shoulders it. It’s a delicious sipper.
