As the boys say, this is not a shy wine. This cool climate Syrah has all the peppercorns- white, pink, green, and black.

The tasting notes on this wine can go on and on! There is bacon, oregano, blueberry along with plum, sage, boysenberry, coriander, beef jerky, iron, hibiscus, violets, and brown sugar. 

This wine is like an entire spice cabinet. 

This wine was fermented with 75% whole cluster, native yeast fermentation, and aged in neutral French oak for 9 months with continual lees stirring. 156 cases produced. 

2018 Minus Tide Syrah

$36.00

This Syrah comes from the Valenti Vineyard, which the boys have declared one of the five coolest (temperature and hipness) Syrah vineyards in California. The vineyard sits at 1600 feet elevation on the Mendocino Ridge, just 8 miles from the Pacific Ocean. The vines are east facing so they get morning and early afternoon sun, contributing to the cool climate factor.

The vines struggle with the poor forest soils, so the concentration of flavor you get out of that is perfect.

We're on a break!

Don’t worry. We are coming back better than ever in 2024!

While Ownroot Collective  will continue to focus on winemaker side-projects, we will now offer 4 shipments per year, shipped automatically.

You can still shop for wine any time, and we will still offer lots of content, connection, and virtual tastings with winemakers. 

We hope you will join us for our newest adventure!
