Reustle Prayer Rock Vineyards 2018 Syrah Winemaker's Reserve

Reustle Prayer Rock Vineyards 2018 Syrah Winemaker's Reserve


Winemaker Stephen Reustle makes this reserve Syrah from a blend of his favorite barrels with the intention of creating a wine suited to aging. On the nose, it's savory with notes of roasted meats with grilled plum, black peppercorn, black olive, cigar box and just a touch of sweet-floral vanilla. On the palate, flavors of blackberry are nicely balanced by notes of chocolate with growing acidity alluding to black cherry on the mid-palate and a finish with hints of bacon fat, a rich earthiness and spice.
