Situated closer to Carneros than Calistoga, Phoenix Ranch enjoys the cool coastal influence of the San Francisco Bay.
Crafted by Cathy Corison for Richard Phoenix, this is textbook Napa Syrah.
Five acres are planted to 3 distinctive clones: Durrell, Syrah Noir, and Estrella River. The Estate Syrah is a harmonious blend of all 3 clones filled with aromas of lavender, boysenberry, black currant, cedar, and tobacco.
This Syrah exhibits clove-like notes, jasmine scented nose, intermixed with black currants, ripe blueberry and white pepper. Soft and supple on the palate, dense, medium-bodied, elegant and concentrated.
Dark purple in color, it has presence on the palate with a smooth velvety finish. Enjoy now or over the next 4 years.
