gargantua Syrah

After 18 intense years of solely focusing on world-class Pinot Noir and Chardonnay in Oregon’s Willamette Valley, gargantua is Bergström Wines’ effort to craft world class Syrah from the West Coast of the United States.

Winemaker Notes

Updated August 2023

This Syrah is a gorgeous deep purple color with cherry hues. Its classic Syrah aromatics are explosively ethereal: purple violets, stem spice, ginger chews, a bowl of fresh raspberries, and ripe blueberries. You find further intrigue in lovely, sweet spices, incense, mahogany, and cedar.

In the mouth, it is vibrant and juicy and plays on a higher register with red fruits and a lovely and fleshy acid/tannic structure, indicating that this wine has an exciting future ahead. It will perform and evolve for a very long time. Drink Now-2036+.
