Tasting notes
Dark earth tones and savory herbs slowly evolve into a blend of crushed blackberries and smoked meat as the 2020 In The Rocks smolders up from the glass. This is pure elegance on the palate, racy yet silky-smooth with juicy acidity that enlivens its tart wild berry fruits. It takes on a spicy edge through the finish, salty and savory with a citrus tinge. Crystalline tannins pinch at the cheeks. This comes across as approachable yet also perfectly balanced for the cellar. The In The Rocks is a blend of 94% Syrah and 6% Viognier.

The 2020 Syrah In The Rocks sees slightly more Viognier and is a co-fermented blend of 94% Syrah and 6% Viognier. Its ruby/plum color is followed by a more mineral-laced, masculine Syrah offering ample red and black fruits, notes of iron, sappy flowers, ground pepper, and lite gunpowder. Medium to full-bodied, concentrated, and pure, it's another elegant yet powerful, singular wine from this team with tons of classic Northern Rhône Syrah character.
