Ramey Description
Ramey Syrahs are grown in the cool climate of the Sonoma Coast which offers a style reminiscent of the Northern Rhone regions of Hermitage and Cornas: aromas and flavors of smoked meat, white pepper, green olive and grapefruit, coupled with a silkytexture and savory flavor.
Blend: 91% Syrah and 9% Viognier, co-fermented
Jeb Dunnuck: 95 Points
One of the best wines from Ramey in this vintage, the 2021 Syrah Sonoma Coast offers outstanding aromatics of fresh black pepper, pure blackberries, gravelly earth, and fresh lavender. Medium to full-bodied, as it opens it shows a more mineral-toned profile, and it’s weightless on the palate, with ripe tannins and an elegant finish. I love this wine. Elegant all the way through, it’s a stunner without being flashy. It’s Drink 2024-2045.
James Suckling: 94 Points
This peppery, smoky wine from cool-climate grapes dramatically shows off the grape variety’s complexity on an elegant frame. Full-bodied but not fat, it’s braced by moderate tannins and filled with blackberry, black pepper and grilled meat flavors that stimulate the palate and linger on the finish. Drink now or hold.
Wine Spectator: 93 Points
Brooding yet structured and polished, with expressive blueberry and blackberry flavors that are accented with cured meat and white pepper tones as this builds tension toward medium-grained tannins. Drink now through 2033.
