2002 Some Like It Red
The 2002 Some Like It Red is comprised of 75% Syrah from the Thompson and Colson Canyon Vineyards, both of which are located in Santa Barbara County, and 22% Pinot Noir from the Clouds Rest Vineyard on the Sonoma Coast. A dash of Cabernet Sauvignon (3%) from the Shadow Canyon Vineyard near Templeton finishes this intriguing blend.
Instead of the center to rim midnight hour black of our 100% Syrahs, Some Like It Red has a lighter, pre-dawn meniscus. The nose starts with black Syrah fruit (maybe a whiff of black currant from the Cab) and a hint of meat, but then strawberry, rhubarb, rose petal and a bit of vanilla make for a very complex bouquet. The Syrah provides weight and texture. The Pinot leavens everything nicely. The flavors echo the aromatics. The finish is long. |
