When legendary winemaker Bob Cabral—the visionary behind the first 100-point score during his 17-year tenure at Williams Selyem—partnered with Cary Gott at Bricoleur, this is exactly the kind of magic they aimed for.

Sourced from the rocky, red volcanic soils of Kick Ranch in the Fountaingrove District, this 2022 Syrah is crafted from 25+ year-old heritage Hermitage clone vines. Inspired by Northern Rhône tradition, it was co-fermented with 5% Viognier and aged 18 months in French oak, resulting in an aromatic, complex, and intensely balanced masterpiece. 

Opens with aromas of Bing cherry, raspberry liqueur, and purple flowers drive the nose of this energetic Syrah which is co-fermented with a whisper of Viognier.  Gracing the palate are dark berries, plum, blackberries, peppercorns, hints of sweet tobacco, and well-positioned oak spice with plush acid and rich tannin peaking through the finish.  The texture is velvety, and the finish is persistent. Pure and intense fruit, ideal balancing acidity, and firm tannins promises age-worthiness.

Kick Ranch Vineyard

Bricoleur Vineyard’s Syrah comes from their second estate vineyard, Kick Ranch, in the Fountaingrove District AVA. Kick Ranch is a stunning hillside vineyard with rocky volcanic soils seated on the western slopes of the Mayacamas Range. A Hermitage clone, the Syrah vines are over twenty-five years old and were a part of the original planting.

Winemaker Notes

Bricoleur Vineyard’s 2022 Kick Ranch Syrah was carefully handpicked at night and arrived at the cellar on September 9th. Inspired by the Côte-Rôtie tradition of co-fermenting a portion of Viognier with Syrah, 5% Viognier was destemmed with the Syrah and then cold soaked for three days before being brought up to temperature and going through fermentation. The fermenting juice was pumped over twice daily to bring out color, flavor and provide a healthy fermentation. The wine was barrelled down in late-September where it aged 18 months in French Oak barrels.

Vintage

The 2022 growing season packed a few surprises with early frost and an abbreviated winter contributing to lower yields across Sonoma County. A Labor Day heat wave and September showers condensed the window of harvest by a few weeks. Overall, the quality of the fruit was extremely high across both estate vineyards, as lower yields resulted in concentrated flavors and even phenolic ripeness across blocks. The 2022 vintage promises many age-worthy wines.
