This is iCellars first Syrah and something Adnan Icel would like to start playing with more – so he’s planted Syrah and Viognier in his own vineyard, to co-ferment in the future. This Wismer fruit is the impetus for this decision. 6 barrels in total were made: 2 used French and 4 new American … a slightly cherry rendition in the mouth with white pepper and smoke on the finish - there’s also a mid-palate laced with earthy, raspberry and smoked meat notes. For a first time wine it’s a delicious beginning.
