We put our best barrels of Syrah into Fracture and then age in 228L Barriques. The name is a tribute to the high content of limestone in our soil. Limestone causes our vineyard soil to fracture rather than crumble.

Notes of crème de cassis, ground pepper, and crushed flowers emerge from the 2017 Fracture, which, as always, is all Syrah and was brought up in 65% new French oak barrels. Full-bodied, beautifully layered and textured, it has classic Booker power and richness yet shows the pretty, elegant style of the vintage as well.
Wine Spectator
- ws93
A wine of distinction and breadth, with an expressive core of crushed-stone minerality, wrapped in complex blackberry, garrigue and freshly cracked pepper flavors that build toward big but polished tannins. Best from 2021 through 2026. 1,928 cases made.
