Carlisle - Syrah Radiant Ridge Bennett Valley 2019

Carlisle Description

20% of the fruit was not destemmed to add a bit of extra spice to the aromas.  After five days of cold soaking in tank, fermentation began on its own.  Hence, there was no need to inoculate.  After a long, slow fermentation (24 days!), the wine was pressed to all French oak, 21% new, and bottled unfined and unfiltered.

Vinous: 93 Points

The 2019 Syrah Radiant Ridge Vineyard offers up a beguiling mix of wild cherry, tobacco, licorice, spice, tobacco and earthiness. I would give the tannins a bit of time in bottle to settle down. This wild, virile Syrah sure has a lot to offer. This is an especially earthy, savory style, with the fruit pushed into the background. This needs quite a bit of air, but there is a lot of wine there!
