BIODYNAMIC SYRAH
gourmet pairings
Slow-roasted leg of lamb,
infused with garlic and
rosemary, is a perfect match
for this Syrah.
tasting notes
Deeply hued with a dark, inky purple color, the Hedges Family
Estate Biodynamic Syrah features hints of wild game, cinnamon,
cloves, dried blueberry, and a slight hint of vanilla. Very rich on
the palate, this wine fills the mouth with an intense rush of flavor.
Its lush finish provides satisfaction with every sip. This is a great
example of the power and elegance of Red Mountain Syrah.
winemaker's insight
Grapes from the Hedges Estate Biodynamic vineyard are hand-
harvested and crushed into bins, where they undergo native
yeast fermentation. The must is punched down by hand three
times a day until the desired mouthfeel and flavors are achieved.
After pressing the wine, it is aged in barrel and undergoes native
malolactic fermentation.
