Vineyard Profile
Harrison Grade is our Estate grown Syrah and is situated 800 ft. above sea level on a ridge top above Occidental. Biodynamically farmed, hand-harvested, native fermented, and bottled in-house, Harrison Grade Sonoma Coast Estate Syrah is noteworthy and a true grape to glass, vertically-integrated expression by the crew at Radio-Coteau. The warmer growing season of 2020 provided fully ripened stems in the Estate Syrah blocks, allowing for a generous 75% whole-cluster inclusion in the cellar, the highest for Harrison Grade since 2017. Followed by a leisurely 21-month élevage in neutral 500L French oak puncheons, the 2020 Harrison Grade Estate Syrah is structured and powerful, with lifting acidity and dignified aromatics.
