Drew Family Cellars/California Dreamin'

I have three more incredible features with Jason Drew.These wines are very special!Yes,the Pinot Noirs are perhaps Jason's "Calling Card",but the Syrah is one of the best I have tasted.There is also an amazing white wine feature.Lets get started and check out the tasting notes on these beautiful wines. Syrah 2013 Valenti Ranch Syrah Mendocino Ridge This is a challenging coastal site with daily maritime winds and fog resulting in cooler temperatures throughout the growing season. The fierce coastal winds lends it to naturally low yields resulting in excellent ripeness and intensity at lower sugar levels. The result is a well structured and intensely flavored Syrah, a wine meant to pair with food. Preferably roasted lamb. A perfect winter wine! "A highly perfumed bouquet evokes red fruit preserves, potpourri, olive and peppery spices, along with a bright mineral overtone. Lively, tightly focused black raspberry and bitter cherry flavors show a suave blend of power and finesse, with a smoky nuance in the background." 2012 Weir Vineyard Pinot Noir Yorkville Highlands This vineyard is located in a cool pocket amongst the redwoods in the Yorkville Highlands AVA. The vineyard is on a steep southeastern slope at an elevation of approximately 850 feet. The Weir Vineyard is 15 acres and planted to some of the rarer Pinot Noir selections seen today in California. An alleged Domain Romanee- Conti selection and a Rochiolli field selection were used in combination to produce this wine with lifted aromatics with red complex fruit and crushed stone and a sublte earth and forest floor notes. 100% native fermentation and 33% whole cluster brings gives desired structure. "Impressively precise pinot finishing with excellent cut and persistent red fruit flavors." The third wine will be a surprise,and now let's join Jason Drew,and YES!!We saved you a seat!Cheers!
