2014 Solminer Wines Syrah deLanda Vineyard - USA, California, Central Coast, Santa Ynez Valley (11/22/2019)
– popped and poured –
– tasted non-blind over a couple hours –
Dark-fruited with medium+ acidity. Very grapey and oaky; a touch earthy. Hint of cocoa powder on the Nose. Not funky or peppery. Fruit is ripe without being fruitshake material. 14% alc. seems to be in balance with everything else. Very good, but not quite my style.
