Pax Wine Cellars makes cool-climate Sonoma Syrah in an unabashedly old-world style, full of pepper, earth, and savory complexity. Sonoma Hillsides comes from hillside sites that add structure and a tarry, mineral depth to the wine. The 2023 shows dark plum, black olive, white pepper, and wet stone, with silky texture and the backbone to age. Give it air now or tuck it away for a few years. Pre-arrival, ETA late June.

"The 2023 Syrah Sonoma Hillsides is one of the most elegant, refined renditions of this wine I have tasted. Crushed rose petal, mint, lavender and dried herbs soar out of the glass. The purity of the flavors here is just remarkable. Vibrant and deep, with tremendous energy, the 2023 Sonoma Hillsides is showing exceptionally well today." —Antonio Galloni

More about Pax Wine Cellars

Cult Syrah from a self-taught winemaker. Pax Mahle founded Pax Wines in Sebastopol in 2000 after sourcing wines for Dean & DeLuca opened his eyes to what single vineyards could mean. Now he's the quiet king of Sonoma Syrah: foot-crushed, ambient-fermented, zero additives, sourced from organic and sustainable farms. The wines taste of place, not winemaker ego.

Flatiron's Take

From the Importer

What has to say about this wine:

Tasting Notes & Food Pairings

Perfect Pairings

Braised lamb shanks, grilled ribeye, duck, or wild mushroom pasta.

Tasting Profile

Dark plum, black olive, pepper, and wet stone. Full-bodied, silky, and structured.

After a stage with Antoine Selosse, Alexandre Chartogne returned to the family estate and turned it upside down. He spent years experimenting and tinkering with every aspect of Champagne making from vine management to vessels. He's landed back where he says his ancestors started: in the vineyards, growing perfect fruit and aging in neutral oak.
