Tasting notes
Containing 10% Viognier, the medium to deep garnet-purple colored 2016 Syrah Griffin's Lair has a gorgeous nose of violets and peach blossoms with gregarious black and blue fruits plus loads of pepper and spice. Medium-bodied, elegant and with a solid structure of firm, chewy tannins, it has well-played background acid, finishing long and perfumed.

An arresting, gorgeous wine, the 2016 Syrah Griffin's Lair Vineyard is a big, full-throttle expression of cool-climate Syrah. Black pepper, game, smoke, licorice, tobacco and incense all hit the palate in this potent, strapping Syrah. Readers should expect an intense, explosive Syrah with tons of acid and structure behind the fruit. The 80% whole clusters and 10% Viognier add to the wine's savory profile and hauntingly beautiful aromatics.
