Arnot-Roberts Sonoma Coast Syrah

Arnot-Roberts Sonoma Coast SyrahFrom four Sonoma Coast vineyards located in cool, difficult conditions around Sebastapol and Petaluma Gap, resulting in a tense, edgy Syrah. nextSectionTheres a nice fruity blackberry, black cherry juiciness at its core that will open up in time to flesh out the dry, tannic palate. The cooler climate gives the wine a peppery texture as well as a lively acidic structure. nextSectionA complex, concentrated wine to be enjoyed over the next 10 to 15 years

Color: Barley Gold

Comparatively light bodied and delicate compared to other aged sake

the goal was to lightly oak the rye distillate in 7 year bourbon barrels with added fresh oak and applewood staves

flavorful and is a treat to all the senses

and fascinating

The soil is mostly argilo/calcaire with some 2 inch stones - debris from years of avalanches from the Alps

Old Hill Ranch is one of California’s oldest vineyards

while the rich velvety palate follows with caramel and spice

Nonchill filtered

Tinta Amarela

The Smugglers’ Series pays homage to the rich history of illicit distillation on the Isle of Arran in the 18th and 19th centuries

” Lovely served with a slight chill and incredibly food-friendly
