"Like The Ones Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2014 The Ones Syrah is a selection of top barrels (there are only four barrels made) and it's 100% Syrah aged all in new French oak. Possessing incredible purity, full-bodied richness and a layered multidimensional texture that needs to be tasted to be believed, this beauty stays fresh and elegant, with la Landonne-like notes of creme de cassis, licorice, vanilla bean and smoke. I can't wait to try it from bottle. As I've commented in the past, the wines from Eric Jensen at Booker are some of the most impressive releases coming out of California. While in the past, they relied on pure fruit and texture to impress, today they possess layered, elegant and complex characters paired with serious depth, richness and structure. While 2013 -2015 are all great vintages at this estate, the 2014s have more noticeable tannic grip and really deserve 2-3 years or more of cellaring."

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.
