title: Santa Barbara Winery 2012 Stolpman Vineyard Sangiovese (Ballard Canyon)
description: Showing that Ballard Canyon can do much more than Rhônes, this conveys dried black and tart cherries on the nose as well as dark chocolate and vanilla. Concentrated blackberries rise on the deep, dark palate, boosted by beef char, caramelized red fruits and mint, with a leveling touch of bitterness.
variety: Sangiovese
designation: Stolpman Vineyard
