2005 Shiraz Central Coast
Fruit from two different regions work together to make Estancia’s Central Coast
Shiraz. We chose cool climate Monterey grapes for the exceptional texture they
provide and Paso Robles for its rich and spicy berry characters. Blended with grapes
from Estancia’s Pinnacles Vineyard in Monterey and Keyes Canyon Vineyard in Paso
Robles, this vibrant and delicious Syrah is an approachable, pleasing wine.
