Syrah, a dark-skinned red wine grape most commonly found in the northern Rhone Valley, can be made in a variety of styles.
The Vineyard
Bismark Vineyard is located in the Mayacamas Mountains high above the city of Sonoma, in the sub-appellation of Moon Mountain District. Sitting at an elevation high above the fog line at 2,100 feet, this steeply sloped vineyard benefits from cooler air temperatures, yet intense sunlight, adding to the depth of this wine. The soils in this vineyard are rocky and well-draining yielding fruit with a beautiful concentration of flavors.
