"A much more powerful, voluptuous expression of Syrah emerges from the 2012 Syrah Estate, where intense, dark Paso fruit is center stage. The 2012 Syrah Estate is gorgeous, ample and resonant in the glass. Most importantly, it is completely different from the Dirt Worshipper, with more body but less emphasis on aromatics. The 2012 was done mostly with destemmed fruit and about 15% whole clusters."

The fourth-largest wine producer in the world, led by California. American fine wine is defined by ripe, expressive fruit and a spirit of innovation, with Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon among the most sought-after wines globally.
Syrah (Shiraz) produces dark, powerful reds with black fruit, pepper and smoked-meat notes. It yields elegant, perfumed wines in the northern Rhone and bold, rich styles in Australia.
