Burch Hall Syrah, Suncrest Vineyard, Sierra Foothills, California 2006

100% Syrah. Deep aromas of black cherry, vanilla, and leather compliment the spicy nose. Flavors of bright red plum and toasty pumpernickel toast linger - a medium bodied wine with definitive mouth-feel, grip, and manly edge. Ideal with: Soy marinated beef, Akadashi miso, spicy pulled pork.
