About This Wine
Savory, chillable, and weird in the right way.
Whole clusters of Syrah are picked by hand into bins, rushed to the winery, and then dumped right into the tank. The whole mess goes in without being de-stemmed. We walk on the fruit to let some juice loose which naturally starts the fermentation. It's weird to think of fermenting with the whole bunches of grapes as an addition to the wine, but it's been pretty common practice in modern winemaking to completely remove the stems from the berries for fermentation. By including the stems in the wine, we see more perfume, complexity, spice, firmness, and age-iness.
Nose
Blackberry bramble, cracked pepper, dried violets, and a whiff of smoked meat. There's a wild, garrigue-like quality that pulls you right into the glass.
Palate
Dense and chewy with dark plum, black olive, and baking spice. The whole-cluster fermentation adds a grippy, stemmy texture that gives the wine real backbone. Finishes long with espresso and dried herbs.
