About the wine
Bold coastal Syrah from your Angel all-star
This beautifully light Syrah is juicy like biting into a perfectly ripe plum. With cool-climate nuance and elegance, it’s like a long breezy walk on the California coast.
With your funding, Matt lets the site shine in every wine he makes. This bright Syrah showcases the cool area of the Petaluma Gap in the Sonoma Coast. He then let it cozy up in French oak barrels for 6 months to smooth out.
With only 600 cases produced, this plush red is one of the freshest, yet richest Syrahs on the site. Grab a bottle or two while they last!
Best before

Serving advice

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Matt Iaconis
- This rocket scientist was studying to be an astronaut before he decided wine was even cooler than space. So he dropped aeronautics and picked up a degree in winemaking from UC Davis.
- And he dropped conventional distribution just as quickly! When he saw the power of Angel funding, he immediately signed up, eager to create better wines at better prices.
- Angel funding allows this hugely talented and driven individual to apply all his attention to making the best wine possible. Whether he’s keeping it classic with big, bold Cabernet or putting a fresh, vibrant spin on traditional whites, you freed Matt to make show-stopping wines for an incredibly delicious price.
