Sierra Mar Syrah has an otherworldly presence, expansive and ethereal with an unmistakable sense of mystery. Typically expressed with cracked clove, crushed blackberry, and broad, textured layers, it carries the power and rugged character of the mountain terrain it comes from.
Purchase Wine Critic Scores Tech Notes
Sierra Mar is planted across a range of elevations, varieties and clones, giving the vineyard remarkable diversity and complexity. Portions of the site rise above the fog line, where greater sun exposure and cool mountain conditions produce small, concentrated berries with natural structure. The result is a vineyard that offers both depth and freshness. Our Syrah blocks are planted to heritage Alban cuttings.
