This Syrah has rich aromas & flavours of dark berry, chocolate, coffee, roasted marshmallow & spice. Forward yet well-structured tannins complement the toasted oak, yielding a full-bodied wine with a rich, lingering finish. Prime Livermore Valley vineyards were selected for the Nth Degree program because of their consistent production of exceptional fruit. The vineyards were ultra-farmed; every vine receives at least fifteen passes by hand
- to pruning, leaf pulling, removing shoots, & thinning clusters, in an effort to ensure that the grape clusters remaining at harvest are of the highest quality. The grapes were harvested in the early morning into 1/2 ton bins & handpicked, sorted, & crushed into small stainless steel fermenters.
