Fruit from two different regions work together to make Estancia’s Central Coast Shiraz. They chose cool climate Monterey grapes for the exceptional texture they provide and Paso Robles for its rich and spicy berry characters. Blended with grapes from Estancia’s Pinnacles Vineyard in Monterey and Keyes Canyon Vineyard in Paso Robles, this vibrant and delicious Syrah is an approachable, pleasing wine.

"Tightly wound, offering firm mineral, dried berry and currant flavors, with a touch of graphite, ending with cedary, earthy notes. Drink now through 2010. 15,000 cases made. –JL" -Rated 87, Wine Spectator
