2023 LEDGE Bien Nacido Vineyard Syrah

Bien Nacido Block 11 Estrella Clone Syrah, Santa Maria Valley - Santa Barbara County

100% Syrah

All from Block 11 in the great vineyard, the 2023 Syrah Bien Nacido Vineyard reveals a deep purple hue and a sensational nose of darker berries, black pepper, iron, and smoked game. Reminding me of a great vintage of Guigal's La Turque Côte Rôtie, it's full-bodied, concentrated, deep, rich, and opulent, with a seamless, complex mouthfeel, incredible tannins, and a great finish. This 100% Syrah was aged 19 months in mostly new French oak. Drink 2026-2040. 99pts, Jeb Dunnuck, DUNNUCK
