Arnot-Roberts
The focus of Arnot-Roberts is to produce distinctive, site-driven wines that highlight the nature of the unique terroirs in which the grapes are grown. The journey to this end has led Duncan and Nathan to seek out vineyards throughout Northern California and now includes incredible sites in Napa Valley, Sonoma Coast, Santa Cruz Mountains, Santa Rita Hills, Clearlake and Sierra Foothills. Single-vineyard wines are the core of the production as well as a few appellation bottlings that clearly speak of their individual upbringings. Some of the vineyards are old and dry-farmed, some are newer plantings but all are farmed and cared for by passionate and conscientious growers, which is paramount to the fundamental goal of Arnot-Roberts: producing the most honest and expressive wines possible.
Description
From four Sonoma Coast vineyards located in cool, difficult conditions around Sebastapol and Petaluma Gap, resulting in a tense, edgy Syrah. There’s a nice fruity blackberry, black cherry juiciness at its core that will open up in time to flesh out the dry, tannic palate. The cooler climate gives the wine a peppery texture as well as a lively acidic structure.
Food Pairing
Enjoy with walnut, fig and goat's cheese, or grilled beef.
