On Friday and Saturday, April 7 & 8, 2017, McMenamins Edgefield Winery will hold its 16th Annual Celebration of Syrah, a two-day revelry of wine, food and fun. The 74-acre Edgefield property will host winemakers from the Pacific Northwest and beyond who will showcase their best Syrahs and other Rhône varietals throughout the weekend.

Estate Syrah
Planted in 1997, the Longshot Estate Vineyard here at Edgefield has traditionally been used to make Edgefield Distillery’s Longshot Brandy. In 2015, however, the warm growing season yielded perfect conditions for making a cool climate Syrah. We jumped at the chance and hand harvested the grapes, then fermented them 100% whole cluster with gentle maceration through traditional pigeage (foot treading!).

|
|
The resulting wine is medium bodied, with notes of raspberry, dark chocolate and spice. We’re releasing it to coincide with the vineyard’s 20th anniversary at this year’s Celebration of Syrah! In addition, Red Shed and Gateway club members will receive Estate Syrah as part of their shipment.
