Market Realitiesn Wine drinkers are more adventurous than
wine distributors!n Many wine writers don’t understand lesser
known varietiesn It is hard to sell wines with names that
consumers can’t pronounce (Viognier, Montepulciano, Cieliegolo, etc.)

Summary of McDowell Syrah Clonal Trialn Vines are maturing, but still youngn Clones were chosen for early ripening, and
these selections are certainly meeting that objective
n High pH fruit may be a problem some years, but trial is young, fruit was very ripe. This seems to be consistent in this trial.
