Wine Enthusiast Review
Rated 92
Dark in the glass, this bottling, which includes 5% Petite Sirah, shows aromas of intense blackberry, toasted herbs and warm spice cake on the nose. The palate combines the classic hallmarks of oak-aged Syrah: bacon fat, cracked pepper, toasty spice and baked berries.
Wine Tasting Notes
The grapes for our Ballard Canyon Estate Syrah release are from the vineyards around the winery, located in beautiful Ballard Canyon. Situated in the larger Santa Ynez Valley appellation, Ballard Canyon has its own nuances and micro-climates that make it a near-perfect place for Rhone grape varietals such as Syrah. This bottling contains classic Ballard Canyon aromas of cassis and blackberry, with hints of licorice. Concentrated flavors of dried cherries, blackberries and cocoa mix with velvety tannins that linger on the palate.
