RATINGS

98-100Robert M. Parker Jr.

..striking perfume of honeysuckle, white peaches, blackberry liqueur, charcoal, graphite, and pen ink, soft tannins, full-bodied power, a mutlidimensional personality, and a finish that lasts over a minute. This will flirt with perfection..

94Wine Spectator

Very tight, dense and concentrated, packed with dried berry, blackberry liqueur, mineral, graphite, black licorice and cedar flavors. Full-bodied, well-structured and focused, slowly reveasl an incredibly long and detailed finish.

93Vinous / IWC

A highly perfumed bouquet displays scents of dark berry preserves, smoked meat, licorice and dark chocolate, with a slow-building floral quality. Broad, palate-staining blackberry and cassis flavors are lifted by a tangy mineral note...

REGION

United States, California, South Coast, Santa Barbara County, Santa Ynez Valley

Santa Ynez Valley AVA is home to more wineries than any other area in Santa Barbara County. The appellation was established in 1983 and it includes a total of 76,800 acres, of which 1,500 acres are vineyards. Chardonnay is the dominant grape in this appellation, followed by Cabernet Sauvignon, Riesling, Pinot Noir, and Merlot. The appellation runs east and west with temperatures and microclimates changing significantly from warmer in the east to cool by the time the district gets close to the Pacific Ocean. In recent years Rhone-style wines have been successfully made here, and vineyards now are also planted to Syrah, Viognier, Roussanne, Grenache, Mourvedre and Marsanne.

TYPE

Red Wine, Syrah (Shiraz)

This grape is grown in milder climates and produces a medium-to full-bodied wine. It is also known as Shiraz, but should not be confused with Petit Sirah, which was developed by crossing Syrah with Peloursin.
