2023 | Stolpman Vineyards Estate Grown Syrah | Ballard Canyon Saumur Mousseux Very racy and tightly wound

Very racy and tightly wound on the concentrated and sleek palate

A dense black color and power-packed aromas of blackberry

and leather-like aromas and flavors

Believing that Clos Sainte Magdeleine’s proximity to the Mediterranean and limestone soil was perfect for Vermentino

Broad tannins provide structure and promise that this wine will improve with patient aging

2023 | Stolpman Vineyards Estate Grown Syrah | Ballard Canyon Saumur Mousseux Very racy and tightly woundThe 2023 Syrah Estate Grown is shaping up to be a gem. Bright and focused to the core, the 2023 offers up an exciting mlange of inky dark fruit, lavender, licorice, cloves and new leather. I especially admire its energy and overall brilliance. The Estate Syrah bodes quite well for the vintage. 94 Pts Wine Advocate
