2006 Layer Cake Cote Du Rhone

Layer Cake Côtes du Rhône is 100% Syrah made from fruit sourced from all four departments of the Rhône, centered around Chateauneuf du Pape. Although each vineyard source could have produced a superlative bottle of Syrah, we found when blended, the wine was the most complete; each terroir complimenting the next.

Layer Cake Côtes du Rhône is succulent and lush. Nearly opaque, the wine is a unique combination of rich, forward fruit more commonly found in wines of the New World, yet complimented by pleasing accents of minerality indicating Old World terroir. The wine is elegant and unctuous; a true food wine with balanced richness; offering flavors of wild blueberries, black currants, star anise, earth and history. Aromas of pre-Castro cigars, minerals and an underlying hint of savory herbs rise from the glass. This is a New World expression of Côtes du Rhône, wonderfully accessible the moment it is opened.  Jayson Woodbridge winemaker
