Stolpman Vineyards
Estate Grown Ballard Canyon Syrah


Love the folks at Stolpman and the wine they produce. True terroir focused approach when it comes to the wine making. Deep purple hues in the glass with hint of gamey meat and roses on the nose. On the palate exhibited citrus, tobacco and incenses. Nice QPR.

Young, and nicely balanced in the less-than-full-throttle style. Never going to confuse it for the Rhone, tho..

Cocoa and spice. Meaty, rich brambled fruit. A little heavy-handed.

Thanksgiving Eve warmth. #EasyLikeSundayMorning from the speakers. Indeed. This is Syrah NOT Grenache.
