Pax Syrah, North Coast, California
The 2022 Pax Syrah is a masterful blend of Syrah grapes from some of the finest vineyards on California’s North Coast. Drawing from the terroirs of Griffins Lair, Castelli-Knight Ranch, Vine Hill, and other emerging sites, this Syrah represents the culmination of expertise and dedication to showcasing the very best of each vineyard. By integrating underperforming blocks and barrels, this wine combines the essence of different soils and climates to deliver a compelling and over-delivering bottle of Syrah.

Sensory Description: The 2022 Pax Syrah greets you with aromas of damp earth, crushed cherries, and white pepper, complemented by spice-laden black fruits. The palate is medium-bodied yet juicy, with layers of black licorice, tar, and pomegranate liqueur, delivering a balanced finish with a taut structure. Its bright fruit and spicy, earthy notes create a classic Syrah profile that will continue to evolve, gaining more weight and texture with age.
Winemaker's Background: Pax and Pamela Mahle founded Pax Wines in 2000 after recognizing the untapped potential of the Syrah grape in California’s cool-climate vineyards. Since then, Pax Wines has earned a reputation as one of the premier producers of Syrah, sourcing from organic and sustainable vineyards across Sonoma and Mendocino counties. The winery is committed to minimal intervention, relying on foot crushing, native yeasts, and neutral oak to preserve the integrity of the grapes.
Serving Suggestions: Pair this Syrah with rich and flavorful dishes such as grilled lamb, charcuterie, or roasted vegetables. For optimal enjoyment, serve at 60-65°F, allowing the complexity and layers of the wine to shine. Drink now or cellar for future enjoyment as the wine gains further depth.
