Up towards Templeton Gap in Paso, Torrin's ten acres sits smack between Booker Vineyards and L'Aventure! Proprietors Scott and Viquel Hawley like to say they are in one of California's wine-growing sweet spots and a glass or two of this full-speed-ahead Syrah will have you nodding in wild agreement. Fewer than ninety cases made.

Twisted Oak Syrah 2004
Calaveras County was an important destination during the Gold Rush, and those miners needed something to drink. This lead to some of the state’s first vineyards. The gold ran out, but the wines have lived on. It’s a warm area, lending itself to full-bodied reds like this Syrah. Round, rich and smooth, it’s got plenty of dark berry notes leavened by a touch of chocolate.

Hailing from the South of France, this three bottle set is an exquisite blend of Syrah and Grenache grapes--with cherry, blackberry, and plum touches, with an underlying earthiness. This set features three bottles of the popular medium-bodied wine that works with a range of foods. It goes very well with grilled meats, ranging from steaks to barbecued chicken. It also makes a great complement for cream-based pastas. A great blend to expand your tastes. From My Wines Direct.

There are 12 acres of Syrah planted on the Truchard Estate Vineyard. Four acres are in the ”Highlands” region to the north, and 8 acres are located at the southern end of the vineyard. These areas are dominated by austere hillsides composed of volcanic rock and ash. The vines range from 3-10 years old and benefit from the unique combination of soil, exposure, and cool Carneros temperatures. The result is a full-bodied wine, with flavors and structure reminiscent of the northern Rhone.
