Epiphany 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon-Syrah (Santa Barbara County)

Country: US /
Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon-Syrah California
Winery: Epiphany / Santa Barbara County

Boysenberry, black pepper, hot gravel and beef char show plenty of the 60% Syrah influence. The 40% Cabernet Sauvignon comes through more on the palate, where tart blueberries and violets shine, along with asphalt notes. It finishes with tart acidity.
