Note di degustazione
The 2013 Syrah Weill a Way Vineyard Exposition 1 is ripe, racy and voluptuous. The new oak is quite pronounced, but the Exposition 1 is the best and most complete of the three wines of the group. The three wines in the Exposition series take their inspiration from Guigal’s single-vineyard Côte-Roties La Landonne, La Turque and La Mouline. I see little connection to those Syrahs, except that the Exposition wines spend extended time in oak, with a high percentage of new barrels. Exposition 1 is 100% Syrah vinified with fully destemmed fruit.

I finished the tasting with Morgan Peterson with his Guigal single-vineyard Côte Rôtie lookalikes, several meriting a perfect score, as if I were standing next to Marcel and Philippe Guigal and tasting from their cellar in Ampuis, Côte Rôtie. These are among the greatest winemaking achievements I have ever experienced, and give serious competition to the reclusive genius sandwiched between the tourist town of Ojai and the biker town of Ventura – Manfred Krankl. The 2013 Syrah Exposition 1, which comes from a relatively steep west-facing hill and is 100% whole cluster, is just a mind-boggling wine. A wine of great intensity with an inky purple color, a beautiful, flowery nose of raspberries, black olives, violets and some exotic tropical fruits, it is rich, voluptuous, multi-layered and just spectacular. It should drink well for at least another decade, if you can resist it that long.
