NOTES: Founded in 1981, Lava Cap Winery is a third-generation family farm in the Sierra Foothills, farming vineyards between 2,400 and 2,700 feet in elevation. The winery and estate vineyards sit on a distinctive outcropping of volcanic soils, the inspiration for the winery’s name. This combination of elevation and geology produces wines with remarkable intensity, structure, and freshness.
VINEYARD NOTES: The Estate Syrah grows on a south-facing slope reminiscent of the hillside vineyards of Hermitage in France’s Northern Rhône. At 2,600 feet in elevation, cooling mountain breezes and well-drained soils allow the vines to develop the long, layered flavors characteristic of great Syrah.
WINEMAKER NOTES: The Estate Syrah opens with aromas of olive tapenade, violet, prosciutto, and spice. Ripe blackberry, blueberry, and clove lead into smooth tannins and a long finish. Dark, savory, and vibrant, this medium-bodied wine shows ample concentration and depth while retaining the freshness and acidity needed to age gracefully over the coming decade. Boldness, richness, and savory complexity, balanced by natural freshness, have long been hallmarks of Lava Cap’s Syrah, and this vintage exemplifies them.
