Tasting Notes
Syrah requires a warm climate to fully ripen but enough moderating effect to produce intense, aromatic wines that are not overwhelmed by sweetness and alcohol. This Syrah grows in ideal terroirs of the southern Rhône and shows the varietal’s typical spicy notes of sandalwood, violets, and black pepper.
Food Pairing
Syrah, with its deep flavors and firm tannins, is a natural match for grilled or smoked meat and dishes featuring herbs, roasted mushrooms, and onions. Seared venison or beef with black pepper and thyme or a Moroccan tagine of pigeon or chicken are complimented by the spicy characteristic of Syrah.

“Dark, inky and nicely unadorned, with violet and fresh blackberry flavors showing real purity and freshness. Ripe and weighty, offering velvety tannins that guide the chalky, smooth finish, flecked with fleur de sel, garrigue and licorice root. Solid and vibrant.” (Smart Buys) (01/2026)

“Rocking stuff, the 2024 Côtes du Rhône offers peppery red and black fruits, spice, and beautiful minerality. It’s medium-bodied, fresh, focused, and balanced, with the pure, focused, graceful style of the vintage.” (01/2026)

A single-variety Syrah, the perfumed 2024 Côtes-du-Rhône unwinds with intense white pepper, ripe black cherry and wild herbs. Spicy and refined, the medium-bodied 2024 bundles notable varietal purity and clocks out with drive on the savory aftertaste. What a lovely Côtes-du-Rhône this is. (11/2025)
