Northern Rhône-Style Syrah/Viognier blend. (But it’s from Santa Barbara) Macerated berries (almost candy-like) on the nose with notes of purple flowers. Pallet also features candied fruit flavors with hints of black olives and roasted meat. Smooth tannins and Light-Medium bodied. Only 12.5% alcohol. In some ways, quite “Beaujolais-like.” (Carbonic Maceration?) Very nice when lightly chilled. Good grilling wine. Fresh tasting.

This is nice. Funky with cherries, plum jam. I don’t get much viognier. It is nice to see this from stolpman whose wines tend to be hedonistic.
