"Well-concentrated blackberry-jam aromas lead to ripe, vibrant black-cherry and dark-chocolate flavors in this full-bodied, moderately tannic wine made from un-irrigated old vines. It's big and hearty, great to pair with juicy protein dishes."  

Winemaker Notes: 

"Made from the oldest Syrah vines in California, in the heart of the McDowell Valley AVA, this wine reflects the hidden property where it is grown - quiet, obscure and profound. This ancient, dry farmed, mixed block next to the original Gibson Homestead has been producing grapes for over a hundred years. Limited in production due to the unique grape source, this wine is built to enjoy with food." 

Alcohol: 14.9%
