Bien Nacido Vineyard is arguably the most historical vineyard in Santa Barbara County. This representation of cool climate Syrah exudes aromas of fresh cracked pepper, cassis and ripe blueberries. Plush and full bodied with soft tannins that leave a long finish of smoked meat and pie crust. Drink now or stockpile until 2037.
