Tasting notes
Medium red. Wild raspberry, musky mocha and tapenade on the nose. Juicy, savory, salty wine with a gamey nuance. Less plush and more vertical than the River Rock, displaying more acidity and grip. This intriguing Syrah finishes with rather suave, sweet tannins.

More Northern Rhone in style, with lots of red and black fruits, olive, peppered meats and sweet fruit, the 2013 Syrah Rock Garden is seamless, downright sexy and layered on the palate, with a voluptuous, yet classy and focused texture. Like all of the Rhone blends from this estate, it was fermented with 100% whole clusters and aged mostly in neutral barrels and puncheons. Give bottles a year or two and enjoy over the following decade.
