WINE DESCRIPTION

Morgan G17 Syrah is a premium wine produced by Morgan Winery, a renowned winery located in the Santa Lucia Highlands appellation of California. The grapes for this wine are sourced from the Garys' Vineyard, which is known for its unique combination of granite and loam soils, as well as its cool climate. The winemaking process involves careful selection of the grapes, followed by fermentation in small lots and aging in French oak barrels. The resulting wine is a full-bodied Syrah with rich flavors of dark fruit, black pepper, and spice, balanced by a firm tannic structure and a long, smooth finish. This wine is a perfect choice for those who appreciate the complexity and elegance of a well-crafted Syrah.

NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

This Morgan G17 Syrah is a plush and powerful expression of Syrah from California’s Central Coast. The nose presents aromas of violets, blackberry, and cassis, with hints of anise and graphite.On the palate, flavors of black cherry, black pepper, and dark chocolate mingle with subtle notes of smoked meat and tobacco. The wine is full-bodied and richly tannic, with a long, velvety finish.

ORIGINS

Winery: Morgan

Region: Central Coast California

The Central Coast of California is a wine lover's paradise, boasting a wide variety of climates, soils, and grape varieties. Located between San Francisco and Los Angeles, the Central Coast spans from Monterey County in the north to Santa Barbara County in the south. With its diverse topography and Mediterranean climate, the Central Coast is home to some of the most renowned wineries in the United States. The Central Coast has a long and storied history of winemaking, dating back to the mid-1800s. The first vineyards were planted in the Santa Clara Valley, and by the late 1800s, the region was producing some of the finest wines in the country. The region's reputation for quality wines was further solidified in the early 1989, when the Santa Clara Valley was declared among the first American Viticultural Area (AVA) in the United States.
