Bright cassis, blue fruits, violets, ground black pepper, and spring flower notes all emerge from the 2020 Syrah Bien Nacido Vineyards, an absolutely gorgeous Syrah offering classic Bien Nacido power and richness, full body, ripe tannins, and a great finish. It’s approachable today but will take 7-8 years to hit full maturity and have 20-25 years of overall longevity.

The 2020 Syrah Bien Nacido Vineyard has a deep ruby-purple color and opens with tarry touches that give way to cassis, cracked pepper, violet, coffee beans and graphite. The full-bodied palate is powerful with chalky tannins, mouthwatering acidity and a concentrated core of savory fruit, and it finishes long and layered with classy wafts of baking spice. Offer it a few hours in the decanter to unwind. (EB)

Since we receive a lot of requests for ripe, concentrated wines that are great on their own as well as with food, I'm thrilled we can offer this outstanding Syrah from the Central Coast. It's a big, dense and seamless red with lush smoky black fruit and a long, flavorful finish. Delicious.

Notes

Vintage notes on Site Wines from Antonio Galloni for Vinous: "Jeremy Weintraub excels with rich, luscious wines. The wines are always intense, and yet I never find them overdone or overly heavy. These new releases are terrific." (09/2023)
