VIE, Santa Barbara County (California) Syrah 2012

Jun 17, 2015

By Rich Cook

This is the bright side of Syrah, with bright blackberry and plum fruit complemented by moderate oak toast and pie spice.  Flavors and aromas match up well in this dry, full-bodied, fruit-forward crowd-pleaser.  A great solo quaffer or a nice pairing for moderate to strong cheeses.
