Gary Eberle has been using the Syrah from this vineyard for years, often achieving greatness. This bottling presses all my Syrah buttons, delivering blackberry, blueberry, tar, pepper, underbrush and spice in a seamlessly integrated package that is simply delicious in its own complex way. Winemaker Ben Mayo shows his deft hand to great effect here. Rabbit would be a perfect match! A Platinum Award winner at the 2015 Critics Challenge International Wine Competition.
