William James Cellars’ signature wine, the Syrah from the legendary Hampton Family Vineyards has a reputation that continues to grow. Aged in 50% new French and American oak for 15 months, the wine is full-bodied and a gorgeous, deep, inky red in color. The aromas are enticingly fresh and feature gobs of berry fruit. Big, delicious and extracted, the palate offers black cherry, black currant and a hint of spice. Despite the bold flavors, this wine retains its style and elegance through the finish.
