Foxen 2013 Tinaquaic Vineyard Syrah (Santa Maria Valley)

Country: US / California
Variety: Syrah
Winery: Foxen / Tinaquaic Vineyard

From the winery’s dry-farmed vineyard comes this bottling with seamlessly integrated aromas of boysenberry, black-pepper sauce and black sesame. A tarry character kicks off the palate and then evolves into roasted lamb with lavender-pepper crust, dried mint and tarragon flavors. A soft and deftly sewn acidity hums throughout the sip.
