WINE DESCRIPTION
This Skylark Syrah is a single vineyard wine produced from the Rodgers Creek Vineyard which is nestled in the hills above Petaluma in the Sonoma Coast appellation. The block is a gently sloping hillside at 800 feet elevation which experiences cool breezes from the Pacific Ocean. These cooling influences retard the ripening and typically produce more restrained styles of Syrah. The fruit is vinified then matured for around two years in barrel and another two in bottle prior to release.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This Skylark Rodgers Creek Vineyard Syrah reveals a deep purple hue.The nose exhibits deep, earthy flavors with notes of cracked black pepper and exotic spice with layers of blackberry, plum, blueberry, leather and cedar. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and robust, with flavors of cooked plum and hints of smoky oak. The finish is long with carried by a core of firm acidity and framed by velvety tannins, leaving an impression of black fruit and spice.
