title: Epiphany 2011 Paradise Road Vineyard Syrah (Santa Barbara County)
description: This begins with aromas of herb-crusted, charred pork belly, graphite and shaved wood. A touch of black fruit lingers in the background of the palate, but the stars are black pepper, licorice, hard herbs, black soot, asphalt and very grippy tannins. Wait at least until 2016 for some mellowing.
variety: Syrah
