2018 Adolphus Syrah

2018 Adolphus Syrah

This is the first release of the Adolphus Syrah, and it is such a beautiful expression of Folded Hills. This wine is a tribute to my great-grandfather Adolphus Busch, an innovative thinker, a generous philanthropist, and a true family man. While he was a beer man in business, he preferred wine at his table.

Aromatics of ripe black cherry, worn leather, and cherry pie tantalize your senses before diving into the palate. This mineral-driven wine is laced with notes of refined black pepper and cranberry. Supple refined tannins balanced with bright acidity mean that the structure and long finish will be revealed with either decanting or time in the cellar.
