2005 Hangtime Mounts Vineyard Syrah

Story

Hangtime wines demonstrate the superior quality of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Syrah from cool-climate regions in which the grapes enjoy a long hang time on the vine. By focusing in the winemaking process on the concentrated flavors cool-climate grapes develop, Hangtime winemaker Tony Coltrin crafts consistently delicious wines that eloquently express their appellation of origin and unique site terroir.

Tasting Notes

The 2005 season was an outstanding red wine vintage for Dry Creek Valley. A cool growing season allowed our Mounts Vineyard Syrah grapes to hang on the vine for 126 days developing intense, balanced fruit flavors. Tony aged the wine for 18 months in French oak barrels, used and new, the combination of wood adds toasty vanilla and savory spice tones to the wine’s lush, meaty, black fruit flavors.
