Barrel 27 Wine Company
Head Honcho Syrah
Santa Barbara County, Central Coast, California, USA
So, here's the story with this. Apparently it was the brainchild of McPrice Myers and Russell From. Russell is the owner of Herman Story, which I obviously have an affinity for given my icon here! Sounds like they had a had breakup and Myers got Barrel 27. He's renamed it Blue Collar so this is being liquidated.
At $19, there is tremendous value here! Near black in the glass. Clove, cedar & sweet oak dominate the nose. Blackberry and cassis on the palate. Good acidity. Moderate tannins. Finish lingers for about 10seconds.

Smoky, pepper, balanced, with a long finish.
