DuMol, 'Eddie’s Patch' Syrah 2014

Region: Russian River Valley, Sonoma, California Varietal: 100% Syrah Tasting notes: Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2014 Syrah Eddie's Patch has an earthy/meaty/gamey nose with underlying dark fruits of black currants, black plums and black cherries. The palate reveals an alluring earthy/savory character, complimenting the wonderfully pure black berry characters, with chewy tannins and lovely harmony, finishing long.
