Pax Wine Cellars, Syrah Sonoma Hillsides, 2023 BDXCOUNT0606 Les Terres Froides is itsPax Wine Cellars makes cool climate Sonoma Syrah in an unabashedly old world style, full of pepper, earth, and savory complexity. Sonoma Hillsides comes from hillside sites that add structure and a tarry, mineral depth to the wine. The 2023 shows dark plum, black olive, white pepper, and wet stone, with silky texture and the backbone to age. Give it air now or tuck it away for a few years. Pre arrival, ETA late June.
