Lot #889. Pax Syrah Sonoma Hillsides 2017

Description: Consists of 1 Bottle, 0.75L
Score: 94 AG.
"In the glass, the 2017 is richer, sweeter and more immediate than the much darker and more brooding 2016, with a distinct red fruit character. Best of all, it will drink well upon release. All things considered, Pax Mahle turned out a brilliant Syrah in 2017 and my guess is that less extreme vintages will provide an opportunity for him to match the 2016 – which, in my view, remains his best wine ever. Vineyard sites are Walker Vine Hill, Nellessen Vineyard, Castelli-Knight Ranch and Griffin's Lair." Vinous, May 2019
Provenance: The Moonlight Cellar
Lot Location: Orange County
Estimate: $55
