SONOMA COAST SYRAH 2018
ARNOT-ROBERTS
Made with fruit from a selection of organic vineyards across the Sonoma Coast, this is a restrained and elegant Californian Syrah packed with black fruit flavours and an earthy complexity.
- Fresh and bright; damson and plum fruit on the palate; firm tannins on the finish.
- The fruit for this wine comes from a series of cool-climate vineyards on the Sonoma Coast.
- Low intervention winemaking yields a restrained, pure wine which stands up to anything the Rhône has to offer.
- Beautiful to drink on release, but will age very well for 10 years from the vintage date.
- Enjoy with walnut, fig and goat's cheese, or grilled beef.

“The 2015 Syrah (Sonoma Coast) is another of the many highlights in this range from Arnot-Roberts. Inky and intense, and yet light on its feet, the 2015 has it all. Violet, lavender and black pepper add aromatic nuance. The 2015 was done with 100% whole clusters, but the stems aren't especially noticeable. This is a fabulous wine from Duncan Arnot and Nathan Roberts. Even better, it is a stunning value. Don't miss it!”
“Fine, fresh and vivid with subtle green notes and some peppery brightness. Fine and grainy with restrained and a lot of style. ”
“A real nose-full of rounded, ripe aroma! Lively, racy and not too sweet at all. Dry finish. Perhaps this could do with just a little more juice and fruit? Drink 2020 – 2024”
