Summary

The Cain Vineyard & Winery Syrah from Spring Mountain District showcases a unique expression of Syrah with its small production and high-altitude cultivation. The 2004 vintage benefits from warm conditions, resulting in a rich dark berry profile complemented by the cool climate's influence, which introduces notes of violet, black pepper, and olive. As the wine matures, it reveals savory elements of leather and dried herbs, supported by firm, polished tannins. This wine, crafted by Chris Howell with minimal oak intervention, is best enjoyed after a brief decant to fully appreciate its nuanced flavors. Due to limited library stocks, availability is scarce following the 2020 Glass Fire.
