Damian Rae Winery Launches 2009 Syrah

Single Vineyard Syrah is Newest Offering from Award-Winning Boutique Winery. End Quote

San Francisco, CA (1888PressRelease) January 11, 2012 - Damian Rae Winery today announced the availability of its latest hand-crafted premium wine, the Damian Rae 2009 Syrah from White Hawk vineyard (Santa Barbara County). "This first-rate wine has its origins in one of the world's premier Syrah vineyards," said John Tarabini, president. "The 2009 vintage promises to be as spectacular as last year's 93-point Damian Rae Syrah."

Extraordinarily rich, the Damian Rae 2009 Syrah has flavor as bold as its deep red color, featuring concentrations of black currants, mocha, and pepper. The richness is balanced with fine, silky tannins, leading to a delightful finish. It's perfect with steak, turkey, duck, or lamb, as well as BBQ ribs, black olive pizza, and pasta with mushrooms. Barrel-aged for a full 19 months, this wine is now ready to drink, or it can be cellared and enjoyed in the years ahead. The Damian Rae 2009 Syrah is value priced at $44 and can be ordered while supplies last at www.damianrae.com.
