"Lastly, the 2013 Syrah Moaveni Vineyard is 100% Syrah aged in equal parts Gamba and François FrĂšres cooperage. On the back label is a touching quote, âOde To M,â the âMâ standing for Manfred Krankl at Sine Qua Non, who has made a full and miraculous recovery from a near-fatal motorcycle crash. Bevan pays homage to him because he loves the wines and the man. This wine flirts with perfection. Blackberry, blueberry, black raspberry, camphor and charcoal notes soar from the glass, and once the wine hits the palate, thereâs no doubt weâre into rarefied air. Meaty, lavender-infused barbecue notes are followed by a sumptuously styled, extravagantly rich, incredibly pure, intense expression of Syrah that should drink well for 20 or more years. Donât dare miss it, but it is one of his more limited cuvĂ©es of only 100 cases (or four barrels)."

The fourth-largest wine producer in the world, led by California. American fine wine is defined by ripe, expressive fruit and a spirit of innovation, with Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon among the most sought-after wines globally.
Syrah (Shiraz) produces dark, powerful reds with black fruit, pepper and smoked-meat notes. It yields elegant, perfumed wines in the northern Rhone and bold, rich styles in Australia.
