Division Winemaking Company's Gamine Syrah "Mae's Vineyard" is a distinctive red wine sourced from Mae's Vineyard in Oregon's Applegate Valley. This wine reflects the winery's dedication to crafting minimal-intervention, terroir-driven wines that showcase the unique characteristics of the region.

Winemaker & Philosophy: Division Winemaking Company, founded by Kate Norris and Thomas Monroe, emphasizes sustainable farming and traditional winemaking techniques. Their approach focuses on minimal intervention, allowing the vineyard's natural expression to shine through in the wine.

Grape Variety & Terroir: This Syrah is made from 100% Syrah grapes cultivated in Mae's Vineyard, located in the Applegate Valley of Southern Oregon.

The southeast-facing slopes provide optimal sunlight exposure, enhancing grape ripening.

On the palate, it presents flavors of ripe fruit balanced by a powerful minerality, with streaks of espresso and hints of bloody meat, leading to a chewy, lightly peppery finish.
