Cayuse En Cerise Syrah 2022

A compelling and impeccably structured red that serves up expressive flavors of blueberry and raspberry accented by crushed stone, garrigue and tapenade tones as this builds tension and personality on the finish. Drink now through 2035. 397 cases made.

The 2022 Syrah En Cerise Vineyard is 100% varietal from ungrafted vines and is dark and exotic in tone. Licorice candy and violet lead to a sensual mouthfeel of refined tannin and well-integrated oak, the wine aged 18 months in 15-20% new French barrels. Salty salinity comes up against a meaty char component of iron, green tea, peat moss, and complex tension. There’s a powerful purity to the whole experience, which finishes complete. Cellar through 2042.
