Winemaker's Tasting Note:

The 2013 Westerhold Family Vineyards Syrah is a beautiful, luxurious wine.  As this vineyard does in all great vintages, the 2013 has a combination of blue and black fruits, white pepper and grilled meats.  The palate is true to the nose, but the textures are livelier than one would expect.  The acid and tannins push each other, giving the wine an amazing tension and verve.  The finish stays with you for over 30 seconds and, after the flavors have softened, you still feel the wine's energy.  It begs to be served with a rare steak; it will cut through the fat making it refreshing and allowing the flavors to further develop. ~ Russell Bevan, Winemaker
