2018 Syrah
Comprised of two estate blocks of Syrah woven with a kiss of Viognier vines, which were co planted along side vines of Syrah by accident, a happy accident. When life gives you lemons make lemonade, so we co fermented the two together. Originally comprising of two lots from the cellar one of which was a project of Kate’s to make Kate’s Syrah Syrah(get it). That particular lot we picked together(with the help of a few others, Thanks Andrew and Sue!), fermented it together, and worked it together. It however was just not enough to do as a stand alone wine, so I blended our other more traditional block of Syrah to make a wine that is definitely different with huge aromatics a little funk and a big tasty finish. Just as Kate would like it(me too), it may not say it on the label but this is Kate’s Syrah Syrah, it is as unique as Kate herself.
