Terminim Alder Springs Vineyard Syrah, Mendocino County, California, USA 2019

Description

Crafted in collaboration between Rajat Parr and Pete Stolpman, this Syrah from the cool-climate Alder Springs Vineyard shows Northern Rhône inspiration with California clarity. The nose is expressive with blackberry, blueberry, and plum layered over smoked meat, black olive, and cracked pepper. The palate is vibrant yet structured, with dark fruit intensity balanced by savory spice, fresh acidity, and fine-grained tannins. Long, mineral, and precise on the finish, it’s a Syrah of depth and elegance, with excellent cellaring potential.
