Syrah
Vineyard
The J. Lohr Gesture Syrah comes from our J. Lohr Stairway Vineyard in the Adelaida District of western Paso Robles. This Syrah grows on soil series 113 (Balcom-Calleguas complex), on 50% to 75% slopes. Only crawler tractors can be used to safely farm this steep site. This part of Paso Robles is an ancient uplifted seabed so fossilized that seashells are often found in the ground - even though the vineyard is perched at 1,500 foot average elevation. The climate at Stairway is ideal for growing Syrah. Daytime high temperatures are moderated by afternoon breezes from the nearby Pacific coast. This helps the Syrah to ripen slowly and preserve its spicy, peppery varietal components.
