Description

The 2019 Donna’s presents a strikingly vivid, broad profile. With aromas of everything from dried lavender, coriander, smoked meat and saffron to olive tapenade and ripe red pepper, the palate is somehow even more alluring, with a texture that is both velvety and structured. Flavors of ripe black plum, blueberry and cherry arecomplemented by herbaceous and floral elements of fennel seed, white and pink peppercorn, mint, and lilac. Donna’s is a wine to savor and lingers long on the palate with refreshing saline minerality.

Deeper purple-hued, the 2019 Syrah Donna’s offers a more exotic, feral, wild side to Syrah and reminds me of an old school Cornas, yet with ripe California fruit. Ground pepper, black olives, tapenade, and bloody red and blue fruits all define the bouquet, and it’s full-bodied, with moderate acidity, ripe polished tannins, and a monster of a finish. This cuvée is made in a more finesse-driven, elegant style today, and it shines for its balance, purity, and complexity. It’s a singular, gorgeous Syrah that could come from nowhere else.

The 2019 Syrah Donna’s Block comes from Estrella clone vines planted in pure sandy soils and was made entirely with whole clusters. Medium ruby-purple, it has a detailed perfume of blue and black berries, licorice, cast iron and wafts of mint chocolate and tapenade. Fresh, medium-bodied and lacy, the elegant palate offers savory fruits and a long, uplifted finish.

The 2019 Syrah Donna’s is fabulous. Silky and aromatic, with stunning textural finesse, the Donna’s is a rock star right out of the gate. All the elements meld together effortlessly in the glass. Bright red-toned fruit, rose petal, cedar, tobacco and blood orange add lift throughout. Even in the early going, the 2019 is a total knock-out. The 100% whole clusters are beautifully integrated.
