Stolo Family Vineyards
Cambria Syrah
California, USA
This Estate Syrah is grown only 3 miles from the Pacific, and it’s coo climate character is evident. Nose shows bristly scents of cracked peppercorn, pungent mountain berries, and Texas Rio Red grapefruit flesh (I know, I used to grow them in my backyard in Houston). Savory, soft, and lively in the mouth. There’s very good acidity, but there’s almost no fruit component to the palate. And I’d like a bit more depth and length. Still, very fun to drink and should go well with fusilli with brocolli rabe and salsiccia.
