Four Cairn Napa Valley Syrah 2014

A fantastice new Syrah discovery that should not be missed - only 100 cases were produced of this tiny gem from Napa Valley.   previous vintage 94 Points Robert Parker: "This superb but tiny production Syrah possesses copious notes of roasted meats, blackberries and cassis intermixed with a hint of flowers. From a historic vineyard planted in 1951 under the direction of Andre Tchelistcheff, it is a rich, full-bodied, opulent, superb Syrah to drink over the next decade or more." 93 Points The Rhone Report:  "A serious and very well done Syrah,  the Four Cairn Syrah, 100% Syrah aged for 16 months in 45% new French oak, delivers a straight up fantastic array of cassis, smoked bacon, pepper, game, and violets on the nose. Both rich and yet fresh at the same time, this medium to full-bodied Syrah is perfectly balanced, possessing good concentration, a pure, seamless texture, and a classic, focused finish.  I’m a fan and this has a northern Rhône like complexity paired with California fruit. It should continue to impress for 12-15 years."
