SOLD OUT! 2005 Trailblazer North Coast Syrah
Won 4 SILVER medals in 2008! Carefully crafted from syrah grapes grown in the Vernasco Vineyard on Suisun Valley Road, these grapes are a favorite of our winemaker who won his first gold medal at the Napa Town and Country Fair with a syrah produced with grapes from the same vineyard.
Dark garnet; shy aroma with hints of black cherries, and slightly smoky; pleasant entry, deep blackberry and dried fruit flavors; medium body with some richness; nicely balanced, good structure; solid tannins, faint heat in finish.
