title: Stolpman 2015 Hilltops Syrah (Ballard Canyon)
description: This red comes from one of the appellation's most important vineyards. Immense amounts of black peppercorn and raw beef show on the nose of this awesome bottling, which also offers soy-crusted meats that are gamy but not harsh. Rosemary oil, pine needle and peppercorns decorate the palate. It has a meaty lamb-roast richness at its core.
variety: Syrah
designation: Hilltops
