Brittan Vineyards Estate Syrah is a distinguished wine crafted by winemaker Robert Brittan, who fell in love with Rhône varieties during his visits to the Northern Rhône Valley in the early 1980s. Captivated by the cool-climate Syrahs of Cornas and Côte-Rôtie, Brittan was inspired to explore the potential of Syrah on his rugged, exposed hillside in the McMinnville AVA. The Brittan Estate Vineyard, located 12 miles southwest of McMinnville in the foothills of the Coast Range, presents a challenging yet rewarding terroir. Originally planted in 2001, only eight of the initial 18 acres survived due to the site's tough conditions, leading to a replanting of Pinot Meunier blocks to Syrah in 2005. Today, the vineyard boasts two and a half acres of Syrah, aged for 15 months in French oak, 20% new. This wine embodies the essence of McMinnville's cool, windy climate, delivering a refined, complex profile with a rich expression of the terroir.
