Meyer Family Cellars Syrah High Ground Reserve Yorkville California 2011

Meyer Family Cellars is a small, family-owned winery situated in the picturesque Yorkville Highlands of Mendocino County. At once a leading artisanal winery in one of California’s emerging viticultural areas, Meyer Family Cellars blends establishing this new Appellation with the legacy of Silver Oak Cellars. This wine has an old soul, there are the tell-tale fresh red fruits, but they are strongly mingled with dried cranberries, rose petals and freshly split cherry wood. The natural acidity endures making the aromas seesaw from plums back to cinnamon, cedar, and a touch of leather, then back to strawberry with a hint of hoisin and marinated shitake.
