   Rich, delicious, very smooth blackberry fruit with funk, gravel, and dark red currant flavors, excellent structure, long finish, darker and less sweet than Cayuse Syrahs, distinctly Rock District syrah

   Another classic The Rocks style of Syrah from Todd Alexander, and a gorgeous one at that. The 2020 Rockgarden Syrah delivers an inky purple core with a neon pink rim, and boasts notes of black plum, wild macerated blueberry, iodine, iron, smoked meat, crushed black olives, dried flowers, and a smooch of sweet baking spice. Meaty flavors, combined with ground black pepper, hits the front palate hard, but the purity of the black fruit shines forth on the finish. Todd’s wines always display this scintillating graphite quality from The Rocks, compared to that citrusy grapefruit quality that shines forth in his top competitor’s wines from the same area. Unbelievably good and highly recommended.

   A classic Rocks District Syrah, the 2020 Syrah Rockgarden Vineyard has ample meaty, bloody blue fruits as well as notes of iron, tapenade, lavender, and peppery herbs. Gorgeous on the palate, with medium to full-bodied richness, it has polished tannins, no hard edges, and a great finish.
