Winemaker’s Notes
Purple is our favorite color. You know you’re drinking the good stuff when your teeth develop that unmistaken hue. Don’t worry, Chad’s father Dr. Dan Johnson D.D.S. says, “life is too short to stain your teeth on cheap wine.” The Stained Tooth Syrah is 85% Syrah, 15% Mourvèdre and is sourced from some of Washington State’s top vineyards. The bouquet floats out of the glass and draws you into all the extraordinary fruit while the ripe tannins provide a silky finish.
