The Seven Springs Syrah presents a deep purple hue in the glass and exudes fragrant aromas of dark berries and fine spices. The palate is caressed by delicious nuances of black currants and juicy blueberries, as well as classic hints of white pepper and fragrant cloves. On the mid palate, this classic Syrah is wonderfully broad and lush, yet still remarkably elegant with a delightful mouthfeel. The finish is immensely persistent, soft and lingering.

The grapes for this berry-flavored Syrah fermented for two weeks in stainless steel tanks, with the wine pumped over twice a day to allow enough oxygen to reach the lees. Once alcoholic fermentation was complete, the wine was transferred to second- as well as third-fill French oak barrels for a total aging period of 15 months.
