2006 Eric Ross Syrah Catie's Corner Vineyard, Russian River Valley

2006 was the first year we made Syrah. Eric love's making new varietals, and Syrah seemed to be a unique challenge. We wanted to make an elegant wine that defined our style. As it turns out we used two grapes to make one wine. During harvest, Joannie, the growers rep from Saralee's Vineyard called to offer us some extra Viognier. We jumped at the chance! Most of the Viognier was made into a luscious white wine, and a tiny bit was added to our Syrah during fermentation. This co-fermentation technique produced a wine with beautiful fruit in the nose and an elegance in the mouth rarely matched in red wine.

Varietal: 97% Russian River Valley Syrah
3% Russian River Valley Viognier

Twice daily hand punch downs co-fermented with 3 % Viognier lifting the aromatics of this dark fruited wine. After a long cool fermentation the fruit was pressed into 30% new French & American oak rounding out the tannins after 18 months in barrel.
