2019 Melka Majestique Paderewski Vineyard Syrah, Paso Robles, United States

The 2019 Melka Majestique Syrah from Paderewski Vineyard showcases the depth and distinctive character of Paso Robles Rhône-style reds. Crafted by Philippe and Cherie Melka, this expressive Syrah reflects the vineyard’s warm days and cool evenings, developing concentrated fruit, savory complexity and an elegant balance of power and structure.

Rich aromas of blackberry, dark plum and blueberry unfold alongside black pepper, smoked meat, dried herbs and hints of earthy spice. The palate is full-bodied and layered, with dark-fruit concentration, well-integrated tannins and a long, savory finish. Pair it with grilled ribeye, slow-roasted lamb, braised short ribs or hearty mushroom dishes to complement its depth and bold character.
