Syrah · Miro St · 7th Ward
Formerly Dooky Chase. Dark, spiced, and dignified: a Creole red.
The 7th Ward is the heart of Creole New Orleans — the bricklayers, plasterers, and cigar-makers whose craft built the city — and its table is Dooky Chase, where Leah Chase, the Queen of Creole Cuisine, fed the civil-rights movement gumbo in a back room the law said should not exist. Syrah is dark, spiced, and dignified: a Creole red.
Tasting NoteBlackberry, black olive, cracked pepper, smoked meat, violet; full, structured, savory.
