Winery Story

Originally four individual historic Napa Valley properties, Miravalle, La Perla, Alba, and Chevalier have now been combined to create an 850... (more...) acre estate of forest and vineyard on the eastern slopes of Spring Mountain overlooking the small town of Saint Helena. Over 225 acres of the estate are planted to vine, creating 135 separate hillside vineyard blocks each with its own unique soil, exposure, and microclimate. The vineyard is planted in densities of 4,000 vines per acre and trained to the ancient gobelet form, a vertical trellising method that was invented in an earlier millennium by the Romans. With warm, south-eastern facing slopes, this small five acre vineyard block of Syrah has once again captured the unique Spring Mountain terroir.

Tasting Note

Spices, black licorice and pepper are braided with floral overtones of white flowers and lush roses. The palate is complex with flavors of r... (more...)oasted meats, blackberry jam, layers of chocolate and toast. Its full-bodied structure is soft and supple, making this chewy Syrah a delight to drink now or to cellar for the next five to eight years.
