Zaca Mesa
Mesa Reserve Santa Ynez Valley Syrah
Probably coming to the end of its lifespan but still mighty tasty. Inky dark color and a beguiling bouquet almost hide all the new oak in this. It’s got blackberry jelly, plums, cedar closet and black olives right out of the jar... but with some age on it, any quirkiness has been smoothed out.
