Central Coast of Oregon, I didn't even know they could go grapes there! A little Oregon geography joke was needed in order for us to break our policy of not selling wine from California. The pair of Ansel Willamette Valley Pinot noir and Chardonnay really needed to be a trio and voila, Ansel Syrah was born...from the Central Coast of California.
Don't sweat the locale--this is fantastic Syrah that fits the Ansel theme: deliver an expensive taste and feel without the expense. There's power, texture, even elegance; this is obviously high-end juice from a source which can't be named (legally). In fitting with Thanksgiving, gobble-gobble this up. -Marcus
