Tasting notes
Made from 100% Syrah, the 2017 Singularity has a deep purple color that’s almost opaque. On the dense and chewy nose, the wine offers aromas of stewed blackberry, plum, dusty black pepper, wilted lavender and violet petals and smoked meat. Full-bodied, the wine is generous and heavily weighted on the palate, showing initial spicy flavors of black pepper and spiced chutney before expressing tight tannins across the gumline. Even after spending 30 months in 100% new French oak, the wine lingers with a tightness across the long and spicy finish. Only 1,800 bottles made. Give it another year in bottle before opening.

I always love the Syrah from this estate. The 2017 Syrah Singularity is another meaty, backward, and powerful effort that needs lots of air to show at its best. Blackcurrants, plum sauce, scorched earth, chocolate, and sage notes all emerge from this medium to full-bodied, fresh, nicely textured wine that’s already complex and nuanced. It shows the more understated style of the vintage yet has a beautiful core of sweet fruit, silky tannins, and good acidity. Give bottles 2-3 years in the cellar and enjoy over the following decade.
