Producer's Notes:

Andrew Murray has been singularly and nearly maniacally focused on crafting Syrah for 25 years. Introduced to Rhône Valley varieties during family travels in France, Andrew Murray traded his UC Berkeley studies for UC Davis’ enology and viticulture program. He pursued his new mistress, Syrah, with an extended internship in Australia at the age of 18. His tryst evolved into a full-fledged love affair with his favorite variety. After selling his vineyard in 2005, Andrew reignited his passion by selecting vineyards throughout the Central Coast to tease out compelling flavors from his flirty temptress. In the words of Robert Parker, Jr., “…Andrew Murray’s offerings are a breath of fresh air given their exceptionally high quality and realistic prices.”

The Syrah Tous les Jours is a quintessential Santa Ynez Valley Syrah. It is simultaneously bold and balanced, rich and smooth, fruit forward and frothy. It is impossibly dark and full-bodied, without ever going over the top. It is heavily inspired by Northern Rhone Syrah (Hermitage) and Australian Shiraz (Barossa Valley). The aromas and flavors are dominated by black cherry, raspberry, white pepper, forest floor and toasty oak. It is an absolutely unique and special expression of Syrah. Moreover, It is a style that one can enjoy every day.
