title: Tensley 2015 Tensley Vineyard Syrah (Santa Barbara County)
description: From Joey Tensley's home vineyard near Los Olivos, this bottling shows very dark and tarry aromas at first but then opens up into cassis, blueberry, black pepper and wild herbs, making for a beautiful and cohesive nose. The tannins are a bit firm and could use a little more patience to soften, but the flavors of tangy black plum, leather, game and pepper are ready to rock.
variety: Syrah
designation: Tensley Vineyard
