Syrah 2024 (Moon Series)
What it is
Moon Series wines are made from grapes sourced outside of British Columbia. 2024 was a year of devastating crop losses in our own province. Importing grapes was a way for us to cover the shortfall and try something new.
Where it was grown
This Syrah is grown in the Yakima Valley of Washington State - our closest grape growing neighbour.
When it was grown
The 2024 vintage in Yakima also saw some of the cold temperatures early in the winter that we experienced in BC. The harvest was smaller due to some freeze damage. The cool weather persisted into spring, causing a later than normal start to the growing season. Things turned around in summer which was hot and dry. The ideal weather continued into September and October, creating perfect conditions for ripening the grapes.
How it was made
Gentle handling and a long, slow extraction during fermentation created a wine with a soft texture and generous tannin structure. The wine was aged in French oak barrels for 12 months.
How it tastes
Notes of blueberry burst forth over top of licorice, tobacco and leather. On the palate it has an elegant finesse, with notes of spice and dark berry fruit on the finish. Dry.
