The 2022 Cape May Syrah is bold, expressive, and beautifully layered, offering remarkable depth and elegance in every glass. Aromas of ripe blueberry and warm vanilla open on the nose, leading into a rich, full-bodied palate of dark fruit, subtle hints of licorice, and impressive concentration. A thoughtful aging program of thirty months in French oak, primarily neutral barrels with a touch of new French oak, adds refinement and structure while allowing the wine’s character to shine. The finish is long and polished, with supple tannins, balanced medium-high acidity, and lingering notes of mocha and warm baking spices. Dry in style, this Syrah is both powerful and graceful, making it a standout pairing for rosemary grilled lamb chops, braised short ribs, duck breast, or a selection of aged cheeses.
