2016 vintage notes
Brennon Leighton, director of winemaking at K Vintners and Charles Smith wineries, makes a tiny amount of Syrah under his own label and damn are we glad he does. A real head-turner that's more finesse than force, everything is in the right place with this wine.
96 points Jeb Dunnuck: "Its deep ruby/purple color is followed by classic Syrah notes of dark berry fruits, smoke tobacco, olive tapenade, and ground pepper. Medium to full-bodied, with both freshness and richness, it’s impeccably balanced, with beautiful fruit and a great finish. It’s another seriously good wine from Brennon that delivers the goods. Drink it over the coming 7-8 years."
