    • Description

      The J. Lohr South Ridge Syrah is a powerful and refined red wine from Paso Robles, California. Inspired by famous Rhône blends, this wine combines Syrah with small amounts of Grenache, Mourvèdre, Roussanne, and Viognier. The result is a full-bodied, juicy wine with abundant dark fruit, spice, and a remarkably elegant structure.

      Dark fruit, black pepper, and a creamy finish

      The wine opens with intense aromas of black cherries, blueberries, and blackberries, followed by refined notes of black tea, white pepper, bergamot, and a hint of violets. On the palate, it is rich and juicy, with a beautiful balance between ripe fruit, spice, and soft tannins. Aging in French oak barrels provides extra depth, a creamy texture, and a long, elegant finish. :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}

      Inspired by the Rhône, made in Paso Robles

      The grapes come from various vineyards within Paso Robles. The cooler vineyards provide fresh aromas of blackberry and white pepper, while the warmer plots contribute notes of black cherries and black tea. The addition of Grenache gives the wine a soft texture and ripe red fruit, while Mourvèdre adds extra spiciness. A small percentage of Viognier and Roussanne provides subtle floral aromas and extra elegance.

      Perfect with grilled meats and spicy dishes

      This Syrah pairs excellently with grilled lamb, sirloin steak, game dishes, and slow-cooked stews. It also makes a wonderful combination with barbecue dishes, spicy spareribs, and aged cheeses. Thanks to its spicy character, it also pairs perfectly with dishes featuring Provençal herbs or Mediterranean cuisine.
