Harvested before the heat on Labor Day, the 2022 Syrah is a classic Syrah in its gamey, peppery, wild profile. Darker berries, lavender, pepper, bacon fat, and violet notes all give this a La Mouline-like character, and it's full-bodied, has a pure, layered, elegant mouthfeel, and integrated yet present tannins. Drink bottles over the coming decade or so, although I wouldn’t be surprised to see it evolve longer.
