The 2017 Syrah Estate Vineyard was co-fermented with 6% Viognier. It was made with 33% whole cluster and aged 16 months in 30% new Ermitage hogsheads and 20% amphorae. Deep ruby-purple, it has a very pretty nose of gravel dust, violets, coffee bean and bitter chocolate with warm black cherries, blackcurrant, potting soil, blueberry and boysenberry plus notes of fried savory herbs. Full-bodied and very intensely flavored with gobs of warm chocolate nuance, it has a firm frame of very ripe, pixelated tannins and great freshness, with a very long, evolving finish. 220 cases produced.
The 2017 Syrah DuMOL Estate Vineyard is sensational and will give a top Hermitage a run for its money. Incorporating 6% Viognier and aged 16 months in 30% new oak (20% in amphora), it’s loaded with notions of blue fruits, iron, ground pepper, and tons of obvious minerality. It’s deep, medium to full-bodied, has building structure, and a great finish. This brilliant bottle of wine is going to keep for another 15 years or more.
