Fernando Candelario Los Carneros Syrah 2021
About the wine
A quintessential red like this only comes around once in a blue moon
Savory and meaty with a backdrop of juicy flavors like black cherry, brambly blackberry and ripe blueberry – plus a kick of peppery spice – this is classic Syrah at its finest.
Los Carneros in Napa/Sonoma is renowned for its Pinot and Chardonnay, but insiders like Fernando know its cooler climate is ideal for growing Syrah – and your support helped him snag a limited quantity just for you.
Syrah from Los Carneros is so uncommon that Fernando only got enough to make 245 cases, so if Syrah is your jam, run – don’t walk – to this rarity.
The icing on the cake? – the beautiful label art by Ruben Briseno Reveles. Even the bottle is a showstopper!
