Site 2018 Syrah Bien Nacido Vineyard Santa Barbara County
All Syrah from the same rows of Z Block that I’ve been getting for years, this wine has an electrifying color and offers abundant aromatics of bacon fat, blackberries, black pepper, chocolate and lavender. The mouth is medium-bodied, silky and carries great acidity through the long finish.
Jeb Dunnuck - 96 Points "The 2018 Syrah Bien Nacido Vineyards was mostly destemmed (90%) and spent 18 months in 50% new French oak. It’s another inky hued effort that brings both richness and elegance. Lots of darker, briny fruits, smoked game, and black pepper notes give way to a medium to full-bodied wine that has silky yet present tannins, terrific balance, and a great finish. It’s going to evolve for 15 years or more."
