Stolpman Vineyards, Santa Barbara County (California) 2018

Dec 7, 2021

By Miranda Franco

 This blend of 80% Syrah and 20% Petite Verdot is loaded to the brim with juicy ripe plums, black raspberry, pepper, vanilla bean, mint, and baking spice flavors with penetrating acidity that drives into the long finish.  It’s a lush wine bursting with layers.  It likely delivers much more than you expect for under $25.
