title: Stolpman 2010 Hilltops Syrah (Santa Ynez Valley)
description: The winery's best Hilltops in years, dry and elegantly structured. There's real power to the baked black cherry and currant fruit, with all sorts of meaty, earthy, peppery nuances that linger long into the finish. The alcohol is robust, but in keeping with the wine's volume, giving it a rich, warming headiness. Drink now–2018, as suits your taste.
variety: Syrah
designation: Hilltops
