This wine will hold its own with intensely flavored dishes such as stews, grilled meats and strong cheeses <br><br> <span style="font-weight: bold; color: #1E347C;">Winemaking Notes:</span><br> Syrah grapes were crushed into one ton fermentors where they &#8220;cold soaked&#8221; for 72 hours prior to inoculation with two specialized yeasts known for their ability to produce intensely fruity wines. After fermentation the wine was pressed into a combination of new and one year old French oak barrels where it matured for 11 months. <br><Br> <span style="font-weight: bold; color: #1E347C;">Vineyard Notes:</span><br> Paraiso boasts the first plantings of <a href="http://wine.appellationamerica.com/wine-region/Santa-Lucia-Highlands.html" target=_new>Santa Lucia Highlands Syrah.</a> About halfway up the mountainous estate is Block 13 &#8211; in a protected canyon, the Syrah vines here benefit from slightly higher temperatures, while still expressing their SLH cool-climate character.
