J. Lohr South Ridge 2020 Syrah is produced from sustainably grown grapes by winemaker Brenden Wood. This is a great value, food-friendly and full-bodied Syrah-driven red wine with lots of character. Grapes were harvested from three Paso sub AVAs, Estrella, Adelaida and Creston districts. Juicy and fresh on the palate with blueberry, plum, toasty oak and pepper spice flavours, enjoy it with a roast leg of lamb. This vintage was awarded Gold for Best of Class of Appellation in the 2023 California State Fair.

Syrah food pairings: meat pizza, Margherita pizza, feta stuffed hamburgers.

Unquenchable by Natalie MacLean

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

The Financial Times of London

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
