“The Style of Syrah from our vineyard at Canoe Ridge Estate is more cherry and Rhone like in its refinement as oppose to a big jammy Syrah. The 2004 bottling offers inviting aromas of red cherry, raspberry, dried herbs and lavender. It is an elegant Syrah with racy, fruit driven flavors.”
-Bob Bertheau, Head Winemaker
