Las Colinas is a blend from our single-vineyard Cherry Camp and Timbervine Syrah sites. A stunning Indian summer in 2008 presented the opportunity for extended hang time and great aging potential. This blend captures the essence of these two unique vineyards.  Timbervine contributes the sauvage and tannin structure, while the Cherry Camp delivers the pure, sensual fruit core.

Magenta in color with inky black undertones, aroma of rich truffle with fruit inlay yet flinty edged, full mouth with silky entry rounding to grainy tannins and explosive, lingering finish. Drinking well now, but will cellar through at least 2020.

428 cases produced. $38 per bottle.

STEVEN TANZER'S INTERNATIONAL WINE CELLAR, May/June 2010

“Saturated purple. Assertive aromas of blackberry, cola, licorice, bitter chocolate and sandalwood. Dense but fine-grained and precise, with impressive lift to the dark berry and floral flavors. Broad, supple and feminine in style, with very good finishing clarity and lingering sweetness. This is delicious now. ”— Josh Raynolds

THE WINE ADVOCATE #187, March 2010
(91-93) points
“The opaque purple-hued 2008 Syrah Las Colinas exhibits more black raspberry, black currant, licorice, and forest floor characteristics in its uplifted aromatics. Medium to full-bodied and fresh, it is not as dense as the 2007, but aromatically it is potentially more complex. It, too, should age effortlessly for a decade. ” — Robert Parker

“This Syrah displays ripe pure blueberry fruit aromas with hints of black pepper and violets on the nose. On the palate it is reveals a velvety smooth texture, rich and concentrated pure fruit, and excellent acidity and balance. The wine is beautifully focused with perfect integration of oak, resulting from fermentation in open top tanks and aging in barrel. ” —M. Potashnik and D. Winkler
