The 2014 Qupé Syrah from Sawyer Lindquist Vineyard in Edna Valley offers a classic cool-climate Syrah profile with vibrant notes of boysenberry, black cherry, and black plum, complemented by white pepper, rosemary, and subtle lavender aromas.
The palate is medium to full-bodied, showing a balanced interplay of savory spices, floral hints, and juicy dark fruit, supported by polished tannins and a peppery finish. This wine leans toward a Rhône-style elegance rather than a New World fruit bomb, with a touch of smoky meat and earthiness adding complexity. It is approachable now but will age gracefully for several years. A great match for robust dishes like pulled pork or roasted pork loin with spicy apple chutney.
Serve slightly chilled to highlight its bright acidity and spice.
