Indigené 2011 Parenthesis Syrah (Santa Maria Valley)

Country: US / Parenthesis
Variety: Syrah California
Winery: Indigené / Santa Maria Valley

Tar, crushed peppercorn, blackberry, blueberry and purple flowers show the standard Syrah aromas, though they are a bit more complex thanks to a tobacco-ash dusting. Tarry structure frames the fairly rich palate, where flavors of dried blueberry, beef char, lavender and sweeter purple flowers reside.
