title: City Winery Chicago 2012 Thompson Vineyard Reserve Syrah (Santa Barbara County)
description: It's amazing how wineries across the country can take Central Coast fruit and make it sing, but this producer certainly does. Lavish vanilla, cola and ripe black cherries invite the nose with glee. Then the palate blends black cherry and black plum with caramel and mocha notes in this crowd-pleaser.
variety: Syrah
designation: Thompson Vineyard Reserve
