Relentless

The Relentless from Shafer Vineyards is a Syrah from the Napa Valley that shows what California can achieve with this grape variety: depth, structure, and an aroma that goes far beyond pleasant fruitiness.

Shafer Vineyards has been a family winery since 1972 with over 80 hectares in some of the most coveted locations in the Napa Valley — including Stag's Leap, Oak Knoll, and Carneros. John Shafer laid the foundation, his son Doug took over the leadership, and winemaker Elias Fernandez, with the house since 1984, has shaped the style of the wines since 1994. This continuity behind the winery is palpable: every wine bears a clear signature.

In the glass, the Relentless shows dark berry fruit — blackberry, black plum — underpinned by pepper spice, a hint of lavender, and dark chocolate in the finish. The body is full-bodied, the tannins firm but integrated, the acidity holds the structure together.

Best served at 16–18 °C. Pairs with braised lamb shoulder, game ragout, or a hearty beef pot roast. If you decant the wine, give it time to open up completely.
