"This is a very hardcore expression of cool-climate Syrah, in line with the Goleta winery's historic style. Aromas of nori, squid ink, green peppercorn and foggy redwood fronds lead into a palate loaded with green herbs and pine needles. There are tart black-raspberry-juice and lavender flavors to round it out." -Jeb Dunnuck
