Sauvage Mt Veeder Syrah

2019 Sauvage Mt Veeder Syrah


Winemaker Notes

The 2019 Sauvage Mount Veeder Syrah is 100% Syrah sourced from a single block off the Yates Family Vineyard. The wine exhibits a dark, meaty nose, full of black fruits and spice. Showing mountain fruit characteristics, this Syrah has a brooding ruby in color, full-bodied, with scores of blackberries, and black cherry flavors. Very approachable right from the bottle, aging will harness the wildness this wine. 

Harvest Notes

The 2019 growing season was seeded with some Spring rain that helped keep everything green until Memorial Day. We had a heat spike in June, and one more in August, but other than that we were treated to relatively nice weather, with cool mornings, leading to warm afternoons. Harvest was completed early in the morning on October 16th.

The 2018 growing season began with a relatively dry spring and just a bit below normal rainfall over the winter. Budbreak was on time, leading to flowering in late May. The summer didn’t see too many heat spikes, but we were treated to cooler than normal mornings leading into harvest, allowing the fruit to hang a little longer than normal. The fruit was picked early on the morning on October 18th.
