Bridlewood 2012 Block 7 Syrah (Central Coast)

Country: US / Block 7
Variety: Syrah California
Winery: Bridlewood / Central Coast

This wine, which is bolstered with 4% Petite Sirah and 2% Viognier, shows aromas of tar, charred beef and white pepper. That spice shows strongly on the vibrant palate, with crushed peppercorns dominating in a pleasant way, alongside black sage and other dark herbs.
