2021 Napa Valley Syrah
The Goosecross Syrah is an incredible display of power and balance with beautiful brambly black fruit, ripe plum, rose petal, dusty cracked peppercorns, and ground coffee on the nose. The palate’s complexity is framed with notes of Kirsch, Acai berry, cured black olive, pink peppercorns, smoked bacon, and lavender. This Syrah will age gracefully for several years but can also be enjoyed now.

The story

Despite career diversions, their ambition to establish roots in Napa Valley led them back to Goosecross, reflecting their deep connection to the region.
The winery maintains its long legacy in Napa Valley, focusing on hospitality and the traditional values of winemaking. Christi and Dave, alongside winemaker Bill Nancarrow, produce distinct, vineyard-driven wines, reflecting a balance between land and winery. Their approach combines traditional winemaking with modern techniques.
