Timothy Olson Syrah Dry Creek Valley 2012
About the wine
.
- Rich, intense Syrah with a delicate, velvety finish. A touch of Viognier in the blend lightens and brightens the wine's dark fruit aroma.
- This is Unti Vineyard fruit that Tim has worked with for eleven years. He has experimented with every nook and cranny of the vines, various winemaking styles and techniques, and every vintage gets better.
- Really special stuff made in a very small quantity. Get yours now or miss out forever.
