RATINGS

92The Wine Advocate

It shows classic varietal notes of blueberries, floral notes, mint and a bonus hint of cracked pepper. Medium to full-bodied, this is a rich, intense wine with a silky texture and a softly dusty long-lasting finish.

92James Suckling

A very peppery nose of black pepper, hot stone and plum. Full-bodied with chewy tannins. Spice-driven with herbal complexity. Black-fruited with hot-stone mineral character.

REGION

United States, California, Napa Valley, Atlas Peak

Atlas Peak AVA is perched above the Stags Leap AVA to the northeast of the city of Napa. Elevation ranges from 760 to 2,600 feet, and temperatures are up to 15 degrees cooler in the Atlas Peak vineyards compared with vineyards in the valley. There are 1,500 vineyard acres planted primarily to Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay. The appellation was named for Atlas Peak, which, at 2,633 feet above sea level, is the highest peak in the area.

TYPE

Red Wine, Syrah (Shiraz)

This grape is grown in milder climates and produces a medium-to full-bodied wine. It is also known as Shiraz, but should not be confused with Petit Sirah, which was developed by crossing Syrah with Peloursin.
