Wine Details
Price:
$26.00 per bottle
Description:
In distinction to the Santa Barbara County Syrah, this wine is the first in a series of single vineyard Syrahs highlighting the characteristics of individual areas of the Santa Ynez Valley. With a brighter fruit flavor and more moderate tannin structure than some of the other single vineyard Syrahs, this is the elegant Syrah of the family. Much of the fruit comes from the desirable upper mesa area of the Rodney Shull vineyard. The sandy soil in that area of the vineyard is better drained, and somewhat less fertile than other areas, and the subsequent quality of the fruit shows through with a refined blend of dark cherry and blueberry flavors, hints of mocha, and lengthy, sweet, milk chocolaty tannins.
