Penrose Hill

This exceptional wine is part of our Fine Wine Collection.

Winemaking With such a successful vintage, it is a winemaker’s duty to emphasize the extraordinary qualities that Mother Nature has shaped. We use a mix of crushed grapes and whole clusters, which spend just under a week resting on their skins before fermentation sparks the exciting journey from juice to wine. Our skilled winemakers monitor each stage of this process to ensure the optimal balance of rich varietal flavor, structure and oak integration come together in the final bottle.

Vintage In a year filled with obstacles, our 2020 vintage triumphed. An intensely dry growing season presented low yields with small grapes of exceptional quality and flavor concentration. Little rainfall throughout the summer meant our Syrah ripened early, allowing for a swift harvest and timely avoidance of the numerous wildfires and heat waves that came late in the season. This wine expresses the unexpected benefits of extreme weather and proves that the most marvelous things often come from the most challenging circumstances.
