When we tasted this wine on 10/30/17, we saw a fun streak of American wood shining through on the nose with vanilla, blackberry, and black currant aromas. The palate was rich with sweet, dark fruit. This is a classic Dark Red bottling.
Dark red is made from hand-picked and hand sorted Syrah (50%) and Cabernet Sauvignon (50%) grapes sourced from three special vineyards in Santa Barbara county.
