Note di degustazione
The 2021 Syrah Anika isn't your typical California Syrah. Although neither Sashi Moorman nor Raj Paar would call it "natural"—a highly contentious term—winemaking is minimal, and it has low to no sulfur at bottling. It has scents of red cherry, powdered sugar, pipe tobacco, leather and herbal undertones. The medium-bodied palate is framed by finely chalky tannins and fireworks of fresh acidity, and it has a long, nuanced finish. It's delicious despite its somewhat funky style. 153 cases were made.

The 2021 Syrah Annika Bien Nacido, from the famed X Block, is wonderfully translucent and elegant. Lavender, mint, spice, rose petal and red/bluish fruits all run through this delicate, understated Syrah. X Block Syrah is rarely this finessed. At times, the 2021 displays decidedly Pinot-like leanings.
