Tasting Note

Explosion of blackberry and raspberry, elevated by savoury aromas of cured meats, bacon fat, cracked pepper, sweet wood smoke, and petrichor. Polished with ripe tannins and a prolonged finish. Recommended to decant 30 minutes and can comfortably age until 2036.

Product Notes

Donelan Obsidian Vineyard Syrah is a bold and complex red wine that showcases the unique terroir of Sonoma County. This wine is crafted from grapes grown in the renowned Obsidian Vineyard, known for its volcanic soil and rocky terrain that imparts distinct mineral notes to the finished product. The wine exudes aromas of dark berries, black pepper, and hints of smoked meat, leading to a palate of rich black fruit, espresso, and savory spice. The velvety tannins and bright acidity provide a long, elegant finish. Donelan Obsidian Vineyard Syrah is a perfect pairing for grilled meats, hearty stews, or aged cheeses.
