This Syrah, from the Oakstone vineyard high in the Sierra Foothills, is energetic, thanks to the granitic geology, but elegant with bright red fruit, a meaty, earthy nose, and supple tannins. 2017 is a true product of the season, with vines shutting down due to a long heat spike before harvest, leaving high acid and low alcohol. Which makes this Syrah exactly the kind of bright, chillable juicy warm weather wine we crave, with dark fruit, fennel and a tart grapefruit edge.
