The 2006 vintage is the inaugural bottling from our Rock Hollow Vineyard in the Santa Ynez Valley. This is a big, powerful Syrah that offers deep aromas of black fruits and violets with earthy accents. A velvety texture unfolds with opulent layers of blackberry, blueberry, cola and vanilla cream. The finish is long and smooth with integrated tannins.

The 2006 Syrah from Vogelzang Vineyard begins with deep, layered aromas of plum, black cherry, coffee and leather. The palate takes a brighter turn, with lively, juicy flavors of dried cherry, raspberry and blackberry with accents of sweet oak. A dusty, terroir-driven quality joins fresh acidity on the finish.
