Cline Syrah (75cl, 14.5%)

Cline Syrah is a 100% Syrah from Sonoma County, California, bottled at 14.5% ABV in a 750ml format. Sourced from cool-climate vineyards across the Los Carneros and Petaluma Gap appellations, it draws character from maritime fog and Pacific breezes. The 2017 vintage earned a Silver medal at the Sommeliers Choice Awards. The wine is aged in French oak barrels with medium toast, using approximately 40% new oak. The nose opens with bright cherry and raspberry before black fig, espresso bean and turned earth emerge. The palate moves through blackberry, cassis, spiced plum, candied orange peel and sassafras, with black pepper and star anise toward the peak.
