Fruit picked by hand in the early hours of the morning. Daily pumping over of the juice for a gentle extraction of colour, tannins and flavours until fermentation was complete. Subsequent maturation for 16 months in 75% first-use French oak.

Dieser Syrah zeigt sich in der Nase mit Noten von Blau- und Brombeeren, Kirschen, Pfeffer und Garrigue-Kräuter. Am Gaumen ist er von mittlerem bis vollem Körper, mit feinen Tanninen, leichter Salzigkeit und frischer Säure.

Soberanes Vineyard is situated in the Santa Lucia Highlands. The Pisoni and Franscioni families are meticulous in tending the vines in this cool-climate terroir of sandy loam, foggy mornings and Pacific breezes.
