2022 Arnot-Roberts Syrah Clary Ranch

From vines planted in 2000, the 2022 Syrah Clary Ranch was fermented entirely with whole clusters and matured for 10 months in used French oak. It has arresting scents of blackcurrant fruit and leaves, cracked pepper, pipe tobacco and charcuterie. The medium-bodied palate offers bright, crunchy fruit framed by pleasantly chalky tannins, and it has a long, violet-laced finish.
