Sonoma Valley Estate

The aromas are quite forward , with the Viognier adding significant notes of peach and apricot to the intense raspberry-like fruit of the Syrah. Though dominated by the fresh fruit ...more character, this wine also shows hints of licorice and spice. In the mouth it is more elegant and refined than our EnglandCrest bottling, and promises more enjoyment in the near term.

2004 Syrah
England Crest, Sonoma Valley

The grapes for this wine were harvested in four separate lots, between Sept. 26th and Oct. 22nd, a span of almost four weeks. Each vineyard block was picked at optimal maturity and ...more all were fermented in small open top tanks with manual punchdown. The finished wine has intense blackberry and cassis aromas, along with caramel and violets, and the smoky-gamy-bacony signature so unique to Syrah. It is full and rich without being overbearing and has enough chewy tannin to age gracefully for a few years if you can resist drinking it now.

2004 Shiraz
Alexander Valley

The fruit was harvested in the cool morning hours on the estate, then crushed to tank. Fermentation commenced after approximately 2 days of resting on skins. At relatively warm tem ...moreperatures, the grape skins were hand plunged to achieve the desired color and structure for the wine. Part of this blend was run from skins early for barrel fermentation, while the balance was left on skins for a short maceration time prior to final pressing. The wine was transferred directly to barrel for 17 months of maturation.

2003 Syrah
Paso Robles

Planted to several exciting new ENTAV* clones originating from France, our fledgling Syrah vines produced a paltry 100 pounds of fruit per acre. Anticipating a wine of bold intensi ...morety from these low yielding blocks, we opted to ferment in small bins, manually punching-down the cap, to fully extract color and character from the skins. The resulting wine is deeply pigmented, with fresh berry flavors and unique nuances of white pepper on the palate.

Um, wow. This stuff is really good. It is so Colson Canyon. This vineyard gives the most savage, earthy, spice, raw meat, dried blood Syrah that I work with. While some of my 2 ...more005 Syrahs are lighter than previous years, this years Colson is the most expressive and complex Colson I have ever produced.
