Arnot-Roberts Sonoma Coast Syrah 2024 Subregion_Chinon a short seasonThe Land The Sonoma Coast that grows Syrah this cold is not the Sonoma Coast most people picture. The sites Arnot Roberts draws on sit in the true extremity of the AVA, wind scoured, fog bound benches and hillsides west of the ridge where the Pacific dictates the growing season and Syrah ripens closer to Cornas than to Paso Robles. The 2024 blend is from 40% Clary Ranch, 20% Que Syrah, 20% Baker Lane, and 20% Vine Hill (formerly known as Solas)
