Red Car Wine Co. Syrah |
2002 Sugardaddy
Sugardaddy is 100% Syrah from the 2002 vintage. The composition is 40% Colson Canyon, 40% Rolling Hills, and 20% Thompson (Los Alamos). We feel that this three-vineyard blend of distinctive climates and soils has given us our best wine yet in the Red Car trolley series.
"SD" is inky blue/black in color, much darker than the two previous releases. The nose, while still reticent, offers up blueberry, black cherry, blackberry, smoked meat, and melted tar. 50% new, Seguin Moreau barrels lend a sweet oak component that helps knit everything together. SD has more weight and presence on the palate than its predecessors. The finish seems to last for minutes. In short, it’s killer juice. |
