"All Blocks" is Tensley’s GSM – Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre – red blend focused on making a crowd pleaser. The fruit is between dried and jammy with a touch of sweetness and earthy spices to provide complexity. Tensley was launched in 1998 by Joey Tensley with a goal to explore and make excellent Santa Barbara Syrahs. All Blocks is, in many ways, a continuation of that desire to explore wines of Santa Barbara beyond stand-alone Syrah.
