Tightly wound with impressive mineral drive from Durell Vineyard's clay loam soils. The palate shows serious weight and density, though the aromatics remain closed and primary. This needs time to reveal its potential. The structure suggests rewarding development ahead.

Pax Mahle's Sonoma Coast operation is one of California's most focused addresses for cool-climate Syrah, alongside Gamay Noir and small lots of Chenin Blanc and Chardonnay sourced from high-elevation and coastal-influenced vineyards.
