Angeleno Wine Company – Syrah 2020
Los Angeles County – USA 🇺🇸
Overview
A bold, expressive Syrah from Angeleno’s ethos of cultivating unique Southern California terroir. This wine embodies their natural winemaking approach, minimal intervention, no additives, and full vegan transparency. The estate draws from diverse AVAs inclusive of Sierra Pelona and Clement Hills, plus historic LA County vineyards, anchoring this Syrah in place and intention.  
Aromas & Flavors
Driven by deep blackberry and huckleberry aromas that mingle with pepper, leather, and a hint of smoked meat. Expect a darker berry palette with savory earthiness and a whisper of spice that lingers. 
Mouthfeel
Rich and full-bodied, yet gracefully balanced. Its flavors envelop the palate and lead into a structured finish, showcasing both heft and finesse, a Rhône-inspired expression with California energy.  
Winemaking Notes
True to Angeleno’s values, this Syrah is vegan, minimal-intervention, and terroir-driven, reflecting LA’s wine heritage and the winery’s mission.  
Food Pairing
Pairs beautifully with grilled meat? think lamb, game, or smoked brisket, and heartier dishes like ratatouille, or slow-roasted pork shoulder with spice.
Verdict
A compelling example of California Syrah done right—bold and expressive yet balanced, layered with both fruit and structure, and deeply tied to its place of origin.
Personal Pick Highlight
A standout in Angeleno’s lineup, this Syrah is a personal favorite for its sense of LA place, natural spirit, and surprising complexity, and absolutely worthy of the next tasting flight.
