Drew 2004 Syrah, Morehouse Vineyard

Winemaker Tasting Notes:
Deep red and purple tones with garnet hues around the edges. The nose is intense with great complexity. Aromas include exotic floral notes, tangerine rinds, applewood with sweet red cherries, blackberries, licorice notes and pomegranates- with a touch of minerals and sandalwood. The palate consists of rich flavors that suggests pomegranates and marmalade with luscious tannins that make for a long finish. Enjoy with barbecued or smoked meats.

Vineyard Notes:
Down a slope as you drive on Hwy 246 between Santa Ynez and Solvang, you can see two neighboring vineyards: Morehouse (Syrah) and Rothberg (Viognier). Morehouse is to the east and is planted with Durrell and 5C Syrah clones in a well-drained silty, clay soil. The extremely poor soil keeps the normally prolific Syrah vines in check, naturally concentrating the aromas and flavors into a meager 2 tons per acre.

Morehouse Vineyard was planted in 1990 and for many years provided fruit to Foxen. Drew took over the 1.8 acre vineyard in 2003. The unique soil and microclimate is "wildly individualistic, and the wine follows" says Jason. Morehouse is Drew's most unique vineyard and produces our most terroir-driven wine.
