2006 Dry Stack Vineyard Bennett Valley Syrah
Price: $30.00
Qty.
2006 was a good year for Syrah. Every Syrah that I made this year, whether for myself or for other clients, was deeply colored, highly concentrated and highly aromatic. The 2006 Dry Stack is dark and brooding, with meaty and savory notes in the aromas and an almost sweet impression on the palate even though there is no residual sugar. I used a fair bit of whole clusters in the fermentation which gives some fleshiness to the tannins and a little dash of spice to the aromas. It’s a bit of a mouthful at the moment, definitely not for the faint of heart or palate. Because I am still on a mission to offer good, interesting wines at prices that normal folks like me can afford, and because this is my first try with this vineyard, I am releasing it at $30/bottle (I know, this is not exactly cheap, but I think it is reasonable for this kind of wine). This is not a fetish wine, it’s a wine that is meant to be enjoyed at your favorite bistro, or at your dinner table, with something hearty. 270 cases made.
