SOLD OUTPianetta 2003 Syrah

For an aspiring young winery, Pianetta Vineyards and Winery has made a remarkable first impression in the world of wine. The 2003 Estate Bottled Syrah is the most awarded wine to date from the winery, clearly the perfect choice to showcase the best of what Pianetta has to offer. This Long Beach Grand Cru Gold Medal winner is best described by John Pianetta Jr. as “intense and dark hued, with layers of vibrant black cherry and chocolate, with earthy fruit flavors and a well rounded taste. The wine keeps a tight focus on the fruit and finishes with a firm wall of tannins.”

The 2003 Syrah continued its winning streak collecting an impressive five Silver Medals from major wine competitions throughout California. Also complimented by Steve Heimoff of Wine Enthusiast magazine, “this distinctive Syrah has a leathery note, on top of ripe black currant, coffee and sweet vanilla flavors. It’s soft in texture, but voluptuous.”
