Lawer Estates always does a great job with this vineyard, particularly with Syrah. This vintage shows optimal ripeness and maintains acidity and tannic structure that keeps things dry and balanced, with blackberry, blueberry pepper and brown spice well integrated and finishing long. Decant or age a while. A Platinum Award winner at the 2017 San Diego Challenge International Wine & Spirits Competition.
