Jaffurs 2010 Upslope Syrah (Santa Barbara County)

Country: US / Upslope
Variety: Syrah California
Winery: Jaffurs / Santa Barbara County

This is Jaffurs’ reserve-style Syrah, the best barrels from various vineyards. It’s softly tannic and incredibly complex, with waves of blackberry jam, cassis, chocolate, gingersnap cookie and pepper flavors that are rich and intense. Beautiful and compelling, the wine finishes dry.
