2021 Destin Estate Syrah
Destin Vineyard, Oak Knoll District, Napa Valley
The 2021 Destin Estate Syrah, from Napa Valley's Oak Knoll District, stands as a testament to the evolution and continuity of fine winemaking under Kirk Venge. This vintage unfurls in the glass with a rich and inky purple hue. The nose is immediately greeted with layers of dark fruit—black raspberries and boysenberries lead the charge, accented by lavender and peppercorn for added depth. This full-bodied Syrah continues to unfold on the palate with lush marionberry, ripe plum flavors, and dark chocolate with a hint of smoked meat—true to its character and origin. Smooth tannins and lively acidity merge into a long, graceful finish highlighted by notes of allspice and graphite. The 2021 vintage, with its well-structured foundation and harmonious balance, suggest a rewarding future for those patient enough to cellar it, promising to unveil additional layers of complexity and elegance as it ages.
