Enfield Wine Co., Syrah Haynes, 2016 so092625 cellar offer initially farming organically before convertingEnfield's John Lockwood returns to Coombsville's Haynes Vineyard for this cool climate Syrah, made in his peppery, savory, Rhone inspired manner from one of Napa's most distinctive sites. The 2016 came from a balanced, even tempered California vintage that produced wines of harmony and freshness, with ripe dark fruit kept lifted by the cool bay air and stony soils. As with all his Syrah, this favors structure, spice, and savor over plush sweetness.
