Jonata Winery
La Sangre de Jonata Ballard Canyon Syrah
Santa Ynez Valley, Central Coast, California, USA
Even better than the crazy-good 2007, the 2015 La Sangre de Jonata is sheer perfection in a glass and up with the finest Syrahs ever made in California! Checking in as a blend of 97% Syrah and 3% Viognier, aged in barrel, its saturated purple color is followed by out of this world aromatics black raspberries, smoked earth, graphite, game, violets and freshly crushed rock-like minerality.

Terrific juice. If you like a syrah in an old world style, get your hands on Jonata. Coffee, mocha, earthy expression of wholesome goodness!!

1 hour decant. Old meets new. Striking aromatics of thyme, rosemary, sage, and turkey drippings, sitting atop roasted plum and bramble. Rich and ripe with a plush, velvety mouthfeel. Syrah and Merlot?
