2018 Lagniappe Red Willow Syrah, Gramercy Cellars

The oak influence is kept to a minimum with 18 months spent in just 4% new oak. Capable of aging for twenty years plus. In the words of Greg Harrington: 'This is why we love to make Syrah from here! Perfectly ripe cranberries and blueberries. Ripe and juicy. Cracked pepper, salumi, smoked meat, red and purple flowers. Sort of an atypical Lagniappe - a bit richer than usual. Powerful and decadent. Reminiscent of the perfect gabagool. If you know, you know.'
