title: Bien Nacido 2009 Syrah (Santa Maria Valley)
description: This is a dry, finely acidic Syrah, whose sour cherry and tart persimmon flavors have just a touch of smoky new oak. It's not offering everything it has, but hangs back a little, teasing with nuance and subtlety. A very good Syrah that's drinking well now and should age well over the next 5–7 years.
variety: Syrah
