Fermented in oak foudre and aged for 20 months in 20% new, 40% second-use, and 40% neutral French oak barrels, this Syrah comes from Alta Loma Vineyard in the Texas High Plains. It’s a full-bodied, dense, and powerful expression with meaty richness, black truffle, and loamy earth notes wrapped in a molasses-like depth. The bold, expressive palate reveals juicy dark berry fruit layered with cocoa powder and lifted by zesty blood orange acidity, all framed by robust, finely structured tannins.

Fermented in oak foudres and aged for 21 months in 20% new American and French oak barrels with the remainder in second-use French oak, this wine is dark-fruited and expressive, showing brandied cherry, fig, and violet notes layered with cedarwood and baking spices. The mid-palate builds with medium- to full-bodied richness, supported by cocoa powder tannins that frame the firm finish.

The Uplift Cuvée is a dynamic, balanced, and polished red wine that combines richness with finesse. It opens with generous dark fruit alongside elegant cedarwood tones, a touch of meatiness, and blue fruit accents. The palate brings everything together beautifully—robust, power-packed tannins support a creamy mid-palate texture, nuanced oak spice, and a lengthy, juicy, succulent finish. Each variety was fermented separately in oak foudres and aged for 24 months in French oak—25% new, 25% second-use, and 50% neutral.
