Espaldera
Spain
A decadent Spanish Syrah shaped by the care of award-winning winemakers
ABOUT THIS WINE:
Espaldera
Syrah
Espaldera continues to prove themselves as the masters of the vine. Our Syrah is concentrated, savory, and true to its old-vine styling with dense dark berry notes and enticing earthiness.

With a delectable balance of fruit and umami flavors, this Syrah is worthy of a special occasion. Fresh earth scents join savory bacon fat aromas, introducing a dense palate with firm tannins and gentle acidity. Ripe mulberry flavors and balsamic glaze accompany a rich mouthfeel and lasting finish.
