Winemaker Notes
This full bodied, fruit-loaded wine is the first production of Syrah from Kionas reputable vineyards on Red Mountain. The grapes were harvested at their prime in late September, fermented in small lots and settled in stainless steel tanks for a short time. Special French oak barrels were purchased especially for this fine wine where it aged for 12 months. The final blend was bottled in July of 1999 and sports a jammy, currant and fruit nose accompanied by light spice and pepper with a rich and smooth finish. We are proud to present the 1997 Syrah as the first of many outstanding vintages to come.
