It hails from a historic Sonoma family vineyard. - [Cardiac Hill Syrah](https://www.donelanwines.com/wines/cardiac-hill/) - Although we have worked with Jemrose Vineyard for a couple of seasons, it was not until 2017 that we were familiar enough with the site to warrant its own bottling. Cardiac Hill's small vineyard block earned its name because of the steep, rocky, north-facing slope it is planted to. The Estrella River selection of Syrah and the limited rocky soils yield some of the smallest and most flavorful Syrah fruit around. Visit Our Store - [Syrah Grande](https://www.donelanwines.com/wines/syrah-grande/) - The Syrah Grande is a wine that allows us to dig down to the micro-level of terroir. The overall goal of this wine is to encapsulate the vintage and to find unique blocks or pockets within the vineyards that we currently work with. The small lot ferments that we work with for this wine push the boundaries, stylistically speaking, on what a Donelan Syrah looks like. We treat these lots like an internal R&D department at the winery, always experimenting to make better and better wines. Visit Our Store - [Judge Vineyard Syrah](https://www.donelanwines.com/wines/judge-vineyard-syrah/) - Judge Family Vineyard is a single vineyard Syrah wine from Bennett Valley. The vineyard is meticulously cared for, with its owner/farmers Joe and Gail Judgeliving on the property. It is one of our coolest Syrah sites, harvested late each year in October. This allows us ample hang time but at lower sugars since the peak growing season is towards the end of summer and going into fall. The vineyard lies in the northwesternmost portion of Bennet Valley where the daily fog often lingers until late morning. The land in and around Judge Vineyard is a series of undulating swales comprised of gravelly loam and decent-sized rocks. Visit Our Store - [Cuvée Christine Syrah](https://www.donelanwines.com/wines/cuvee-christine-syrah/) - This 100% Syrah blend is an intense assemblage of some of our favorite Syrah vineyards in Sonoma County. Our sourcing for this wine is diverse, ranging from Knights Valley to as far West as Green Valley of Russian River Valley, and the usual suspect vineyards are present in this blend; Kobler, Lawer, Steiner, Cardiac Hill, and Judge. We refer to the Cuvée Christine as our Sonoma postcard to Syrah. It runs the full gamut of flavor and personality with fruit, spice, and savory. There’s something in this wine for everyone and every meal, and the quality-to-price ratio is unmatched. Visit Our Store - [Cuvée Keltie Syrah](https://www.donelanwines.com/wines/cuvee-keltie-syrah/) - Cuvée Keltie is a direct result of careful study in the vineyard. Identifying subtle shifts in terroir and personality in the vineyard allows our team to isolate some sections of vineyards - sometimes just a few rows or the top of a hill and often in one or two-ton increments. Optimal ripeness in these sections combined with large percentages of whole-cluster creates a wine we relish in. Visit Our Store - [Kobler Family Vineyard Syrah](https://www.donelanwines.com/wines/kobler-family-vineyard-syrah/) - Not only is the Kobler Family Vineyard planted in a unique spot, but the unique grapes that brothers Mike and Otto decided on are also what makes this vineyard special. In a sea of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, the Kobler brothers decided to buck the trend and plant Syrah and Viognier. At the time they planted the vineyard, there were not many Rhone varieties in Sonoma County, let alone this far West. But they had a vision that this site would produce great wines in the vein of the wines of the Northern Rhone. Fifteen years later, the brothers’ intuition proved to be true. We cannot wait to see what the next fifteen years have in store for Kobler Vineyard. Visit Our Store - [Obsidian Vineyard Syrah](https://www.donelanwines.com/wines/obsidian-vineyard-syrah/) - The Obsidian Vineyard Syrah hails from our dry-farmed, old vine estate vineyard in Sonoma's Knights Valley.

Our first vintage of Cuvee Pierrine shows classic Russian River in its profile. Orchard fruit beams to the nose with bright juicy fruit, and browned creaminess in the mid-palate. There’s a great pop from acidity, generous weight, and creaminess, but not over-ripe. This wine was over-vintaged and bottled after 17 months of sur-lee aging.
