2008 Syrah The Legend of Su Yuen

There once was a beautiful but spoiled Chinese princess, Su Yuen, whose tastes for food were legendary. Her father, the king, decreed that his chefs should create wonderful delicacies for her — but that she must always have something new. The penalty was death if they ever repeated the same dish twice. Thus, the tradition of Dim Sum was born. Wine for a World of Flavors

In some ways we are all picky princesses that want to enjoy a variety of different cuisines. After all, who wants to eat the same food at every meal? Su Yuen wines are specifically crafted to pair with a wide range of foods and flavors. 2008 Su Yuen Syrah

The fruit selections we grow for our Syrah produce a medium-bodied red wine. We also use special winemaking techniques and only a limited amount of oak aging so that Su Yuen Syrah reveals no tannins, but has a bright fruit quality and interesting spice notes that work well with all sorts of nibbles and noshes. Smooth and supple on the palate, you’ll discover rich flavors of plum and cherries along with clove and pepper spice notes and a smoky finish. Delicious with a variety of meats, anything off the grill, strong cheeses, and Asian cuisine. Pairs perfectly with:

Sausage and cheese pizza Skirt steak Garlic pork Barbecued chicken

Sage and butternut squash ravioli Grilled lamb chops Cedar plank salmon Pork dumplings
