Winemaker Notes: 

"The friend you never want to go home. Caring, funny, inquisitive, genuine, and a little talkative. Ripe red fruits, subtle violets, some girth, some grip, this wine will age and cellar exceptionally well. 

The Syrah is part of the original planting at Ibarra-Young Vineyard, planted in 1971. It is own-rooted, it’s been farmed organically since 1993, and it’s possibly my favorite block-it certainly is the soul of the property! This Syrah block is located on a sandy loam slope in the most fertile section of the vineyard. These vines produce tight and dense clusters averaging the size of your palm. When they are ripe, the cluster’s dainty golden stems pop off with a small tug - you don’t even need sheers to harvest!" 

Alcohol: 12.8%
