Tasting notes the glass-staining purple hues indicate a gargantuan blend of syrah and petit verdot. A staggering bouquet of blueberry blackberry and tar overwhelms the nose. The palate bursts with black fruit and massive ripe tannin all balanced by juicy acidity. Perfectly toasted french oak combines late leading to a memorable finish. Vineyard notes the 2014 moose is a showcase for the syrah from our estate vineyard. In this case it is the 2. 65 acre block 8 clone 99 syrah planted in 2002. This block is planted on an extremely steep section of our estate thus the limestone is exposed with almost no top soil. The resulting fruit is a prime example of what farming on high ph (9. 2) soils can produce. We blended the estate syrah with petit verdot from the live oak vineyard in the cooler templeton gap region which helped to increase the desired tannic weight and structure elements of the varietal. Winemaker notes the syrah for this vintage was de-stemmed and fermented in 2. 5 ton
