Head High’s 2023 Sonoma County Syrah reads as a dark-fruited, savory style, with brambleberry, black currant, and hints of shiso on the nose.
On the palate, cedar, sweet tobacco, black pepper, star anise, and a touch of oak char give it a layered, firmly structured profile. It has enough richness to feel generous, but the fine tannins and bright acidity keep it balanced and focused. If you like a more polished, cool-climate Syrah with a nod toward classic Northern Rhône restraint, this should land well.
Serve it with rosemary-rubbed lamb chops or grilled sausages.
