One of the original Rhone Rangers, Red Car has been producing Syrah longer than any other varietal. Today, it is at the forefront of the style evolution in California Syrah. Restraint, naturally high acidity, true Northern Rhone Syrah perfume, and silky tannins are important components in Red Car's 2010 Sonoma Coast Syrah along with native yeast fermentation, moderate stem inclusion and being aged in 500L puncheons for 12 months. Sourced from three of the stand-out Syrah vineyards in Northern California, the Red Car Estate Vineyard in the Fort Ross - Seaview AVA, the Martinelli Family’s Zio Tony Vineyard and the Vivio Vineyard (Joe Vivio’s eponymous site in Bennett Valley), this wine showcase’s Red Car’s commitment to balance.
