Our 2018 Amalia Vineyard Syrah is a bit more of an elegant, floral style than the previous vintage, due in large part to a portion of the wine being co-fermented with Viognier. The lifted aromatics (violets and white pepper) complement the ripe fruit profile of blackberries and dark fruit. UNFINED AND LIGHTLY FILTERED

Classic: cured meats, steak, lamb, brisket, heavily seasoned dishes with black pepper, aged cheeses, sausage, grilled meat Adventurous: grilled eggplant, Asian dishes with plum sauce, pulled pork, stir-fried pork, red wine-braised octopus, venison, veal, seared tuna.
