in 2008, januik made a single-vineyard syrah from lewis vineyard fruit; now the winery has sourced fruit from ciel du cheval vineyard, one of the superstar spots on red mountain. a compact wine that snaps right into focus, this offers varietal flavors of fig, berry and plum. a streak of smooth chocolate weaves through the finish, along with a hint of red licorice and underlying slate-like minerality.
