Tasting Notes
100% Bien Nacido Vineyard, Santa Maria Valley. 166 cases. Awarded 99 points by Jeb Dunnuck. Cool-climate Syrah of rare depth — classic pepper, black fruit, and an umami richness that only the world's greatest vineyards can produce.

Color:Deep ruby red with dark purple hue

Nose:Classic cool-climate Syrah. Fresh cracked Tellicherry black pepper overlaying black cherry, black currant, and blueberry. With air: carpaccio and au poivre.

Palate:Lush and full body. Savory, umami-like notes — only a Texas pitmaster can coax this from slow cooked burnt ends. The oak presents as cacao nibs and crème brûlée on the long finish. Both dinner and dessert in one.

Appellation:100% Bien Nacido Vineyard, Santa Maria Valley — large-format Darnajou and Ermitage puncheons, a seamless cool-climate Syrah. 99 pts, Jeb Dunnuck.

Smolder Notes

The bitterness of Lapsang Souchong contrasts the Syrah's bold structure while elevating its dark fruit notes of blackberry and plum.
