title: Arcadian 2007 Stolpman Vineyard Syrah (Santa Ynez Valley)
description: This is a current release from Joe Davis, who holds his wines back until their prime. Hailing from Ballard Canyon, it shows black plum, pressed purple flowers, tanned leather and balsamic notes on the nose. There's a pleasantly yet softly structured texture to the palate, where dried blackberry, roast beef, lilac and Concord grape flavors arise.
variety: Syrah
designation: Stolpman Vineyard
