2021 VERTIGO
BLEND: 62% Syrah, 22% Mourvedre, 7% Grenache, 5% Petit Sirah, 4% Tannat
The Booker estate vineyard is pitched along steep hillside slopes—a signature aspect of its distinctive terroir. “Whenever I was on the quad (four-wheeler) looking down the long, steep drop I used to joke that it was so steep I was getting vertigo,” Eric says. And thus the name was born for this signature Rhône-style blend, made with a twist of Petite Sirah and Tannat. The 2021 Vertigo presents floral lilac aromas laced with black cherry and graphite. The mouthfeel is rich and savory, with rich fruits and notes of cacao nibs that linger deep into a long, smooth finish.
