Narrative

Type = wine grape. Per Galet (see citation): "Growing tip: felty, white with rose margin. Young leaves: downy, yellowish-white above, felty, pinkish-white below. Leaf: medium, orbicular 136-2-57; lateral sinuses 43 with narrow, pointed bases; bullate, crimped around petiolar junction, contorted, often wavy, lower surface finely pubescent and with downy tufts; petiolar sinus lyre-shaped, more or less closed; teeth convex, average. Shoot: very ribbed, green with red nodes, downy at tip; long, thin tendrils. Cane: medium, 10 to 12 cm, cylindrical, pincone-like (compact); early maturing, woody peduncles; berries oval, small, blue-black, abundant bloom, juicy, sweet. Cultivated since Roman times in the nothern Cotes-du-Rhone, Syrah is a noble variety which produces the great wines of the Hermitage region as well as being among the varieties grown for Chateauneuf-du-Pape. The wine, which has a violet aroma, is rich in body, tannin, and color and needs to be aged in order to develop its full character. The Syrah is a low yielding variety which loses its noble qualities when the production is forced. French growers distinguish between the petite Syrah and the grosse Syrah, the latter being more fertile, more vigorous, and producing wine of lesser quality. Budbreak is fairly late and maturity is midseason. It is very sensitive to drought and the shoots break in extremely windy conditions. The clusters are susceptible to botrytis and the grape berry moth while being somewhat resistant to powdery mildew. Attention should be paid to the health of the wood used for propagation due to virus infection. The leaves redden on the edges in autumn."
