Description
Dunites Wine Co. 2019 Syrah: Central Coast Elegance
Crafted in California’s sun-drenched Central Coast, this 94-point Syrah (Vinous) from Spanish Springs Vineyard marries power with finesse. Hand-harvested grapes from steep, east-facing slopes—planted to the prized Alban clone—yield a wine of remarkable depth and balance.
Artisan Winemaking:
65% whole-cluster fermentation unlocks complex layers without overwhelming the palate. Naturally fermented with native yeasts and zero added sulfites, the wine aged 10 months in neutral French oak puncheons before gentle basket pressing. Bottled unfined and unfiltered to preserve its vibrant character.
Sensory Journey:
Breathe in bold aromas of blackberries and Kalamata olives, elevated by whispers of white pepper, wild herbs, and violet. On the palate, silky tannins frame a luminous structure—think dark fruit compote meets savory elegance—with refreshing acidity that lingers. At 13.5% ABV, it’s both robust and approachable.
Why Choose This Vintage?
– Critic-Adored: Vinous praises its “translucent power” and distinctive personality.
– Terroir-Driven: Mineral-rich soils and coastal winds shape its unique profile.
– Pure Expression: Unadulterated by additives or aggressive filtration.
Ideal for collectors seeking age-worthy California Syrah or food pairings with grilled lamb or mushroom risotto. Vintage variations may occur.
