Ballard Canyon AVA, Santa Ynez Valley, Santa Barbara County, Kalifornien, USA

The grapes come from seven Syrah parcels in the Purisima Mountain Vineyard, from the lower slope to the upper canyon rim; the subsoil consists of rare limestone. The fully destemmed grapes were cold-soaked for 2–3 days, fermented with natural yeasts for 10–14 days and punched down by hand twice a day. The wine then matured for 20 months, 37 % of which was in new French oak barrels and 63 % in neutral French oak barrels. It shows blackberry, plum, dark chocolate, mocha, espresso and black pepper, with full body, round ripe tannins and good balance. The vintage was small in volume; the total harvest was 35 % below average.
