Matinee Santa Barbara County Syrah
Santa Barbara County, Central Coast, California, USA
Blend of five vineyards from two appellations in Santa Barbara County; Solomon Hills and Gold Coast; from Santa Maria Valley, Peake Ranch and Zotovich; and Drum Canyon from Sta. Rita Hills. Ruby color with aromas of red fruit, baking spice and earthy notes. On the palate flavors of raspberry and cherry with white flower notes and an array of spices. Fine dusty tannins, long finish ending with fresh fruit, spice and earthy tones. Nice!

A blend of Syrah and Grenache - powerful cigar box, vanilla, and spices. Bolstered by fruit, red berries, and cloves. Mid palate is strong, slight bitterness in mouth.
