The 2021 Syrah Radiant Ridge Vineyard is dense, potent and explosive, as wines from this site can be. Inky dark fruit, lavender, chocolate, licorice, spice and dried flowers saturate the palate. This heady Sonoma County Syrah packs a serious punch. Blue/purplish fruit, lavender, chocolate, graphite and incense build into the huge, muscular finish. Radiant Ridge remains one of the most distinctive sites in all of Sonoma.

A youthful deep purple, the 2021 Syrah Radiant Ridge Vineyard is lush with pressed violets, fresh black plum, and pepper. It’s full-bodied on the palate but has good lift and is light on its feet, with a hint of citrus and black cherry, fine tannins, and a bit of grip on the finish. It’s a snappy and crunchy wine underneath. Drink 2024-2034.
