2019 Westwood Syrah, Annadel Gap, Sonoma Valley
Once again showing the benefits of the cool-climate characteristics of the Annadel Gap Vineyard, the 2019 shows an incredible meaty, smoky, deep and concentrated style as well as blackberry, violets and white pepper. The tannins are ultra-fine with a full-bodied richness as well as a rare mix of power and grace.

The 2019 Syrah from Westwood offers up are lovely aromas of ripe raspberries, cherry, clove, black pepper, Provencal herbs, and a hint of vanilla bean. On the palate this has delicious flavors of muddled red berries, spice, and dried herbs. Give this some air for a few hours before enjoying, as it needs some time to open up. Showcasing a stunning dark ruby/purple, it delivers ample acidity and an earthy finish that lingers on. Enjoy over the next 7-10 years.
