2021 "Cinematique" Syrah

Larner Vineyard, 96 points

"Coming from the famous organic Larner Vineyard of Ballard Canyon, the 2021 Cinematique is a New World Syrah at its best. This always elegant and energetic wine showcases elevated notes of star anise, violet flowers, and cherries.  Velvety textured, silky yet powerful it finishes long and strong." - Paul Lato

"...dark, flashy aromas of blackcurrant candy, powdered sugar and wafts of blueberries ... full-bodied palate ... elegant frame of pixelated tannins ... concentrated fruit ...a long, flavorful finish..." - 96 points, Wine Advocate (Erin Brooks)

"...gorgeous ripe cherries... a soft, seamless texture, and ultra-fine tannins..." - 96 points, Jeb Dunnuck
