This wine is a great example of how the Rhone varietals shine in Santa Barbara County.  The perfect marriage of the Rhone and Central Coast California.  Kurt Fauerbach, Owner Xplor Wine

Opaque with dense crimson and ruby red hues, the wine shows a solid core of dark red fruit and spicy fruit surrounded by youthful tannins. The overlying presence of Grenache flavors initially impact the palate, followed by a finish complete with hints of jam, cocoa and dark berry contributions of Syrah and earthy Mourvèdre.

There’s a dark, intense, bold and, yet still elegant focus to this eight-vineyard blend of 39% Grenache, 32% Syrah, 15% Mourvèdre, 7% Cinsault and 7% Counoise. Aromas of boysenberry, blueberry, violet and lilac on the nose lead into a silky purple-flower display on the palate, where generous berry flavors are framed by tense tannins.

Offering polished cherry and cinnamon flavors accented by garrigue and cracked pepper, this sleek red finishes with refined tannins. Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre, Counoise and Cinsault.
