We named this wine after the Provencal Troubadour Arnaut Daniel, who invented the Sestina poem form, thus creating a connection between our two flagship efforts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Deep, dark Syrah notes on the nose, with dark blackberry, blueberry reduction, grilled meat, crushed olive, black licorice, camphor, pen ink, and cracked black pepper. The palate is super concentrated and dense, tightly focused, and deeply complex. Savory blueberry, pan drippings, a hint of orange essence, and hand-rubbed sage come through on the extremely long and nuanced finish.

This deep ruby-colored effort is as silky and seamless as it gets, offering loads of black raspberry, blackberry, smoked earth, spice, and hints of chocolate. Medium to full-bodied, ultra-pure, and impeccably balanced, it's a beautiful wine from Chris to enjoy over the coming 10-15 years.    Winemaker Chris Peterson continues to fashion some of the most impressive wines in the State. These are always more classical in style and show plenty of acidity and structure in their youth, yet they blossom with just short term cellaring and are brilliant wines. \u003cb\u003e- Jeb Dunnuck 97 Points\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Avennia","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44948980105263,"sku":"W0EE327023SYL","price":60.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0741\/4677\/5087\/files\/aviennaarunut_7f180191-5aa2-4235-8896-5a2175bca575.jpg?v=1771486569","url":"https:\/\/timelesswinesdirect.com\/products\/avennia-arnaut-syrah-2016","provider":"timelesswines.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
