2017 / Red
2017 Syrah
With ripe black and red fruit flavors balanced by fresh structure and accented with smoky, savory elements mixed with sweet spice, the 2017 JUSTIN Syrah is a full-bodied New World take on a classic grape variety from the Northern Rhone in France. This limited offering gets along well with a wide range of palates and food pairings, proving that Paso Robles Syrah can show depth and character, but can be versatile enough to bring along on your next picnic or with a hearty dinner.

Tasting notes
Appearance: Bright with a dark purple core showing black secondary color, lightening to a medium purple ruby toward the rim with moderate staining on the glass.
Aroma: Aromatic with black fruit of cherry and berry with red berry accents, barrel spice of vanilla, licorice and cinnamon with subtle camphor, cracked black pepper, dried herbs and smoked cured meat.
Palate: Full bodied with black cherry, blackberry jam and raspberry fruit mixed with attractive barrel spice notes on entry. The mid palate features sustained fruit mixed with savory pepper, dried herbs with anise and hints of salumi. The finish is fresh and long, continually evolving as the wine’s flavor components mix, all wrapped in firm, fine tannins.
Food pairings
Nicely balanced, textured and complex, the 2017 JUSTIN Syrah’s fruit along with its smoky, savory elements make it a bold pairing partner for grilled Italian styled sausages, or with an artisanal charcuterie and cheese platter featuring moderately aged sheeps’ milk cheeses like Manchego, Abbaye de Belloc, or Kasseri.
