The Margerum Tasting Room is located on Mason Street across from the Hotel Californian and we thought this would be a fitting name for a Wine Club exclusive wine. This is only our 3rd release and this year it is 100% Syrah made from top cool-climate vineyards in Santa Barbara County. Selected barrels from our cold cellar were chosen for their bold yet approachable character. The wine is aged in French oak to produce a rich, complex wine. This wine pairs well with big full-flavored foods like grilled meats, hearty stews, BBQ and richer fattier fish like tuna and salmon.
Rich and powerful balanced with black boysenberry fruits, leather and tobacco leaf. Tight, focused, and with rich, young tannins that will bode well for aging.
Color: Voluptuous rich black hues opaque with crimson red highlights
Aroma: Meaty,“old world”spices, root beer and a whole cadre of black fruit aromas with a touch of toast and earthy notes
Wine Club Exclusive Wine. Balanced acidity and lower alcohol makes for a wine that is concentrated and intense. Flavors of both red and black fruits, underripe plum, and espresso.
Color: Dark as sin, intense purple-violet with a deep dark core.
Aroma: Dark spice, leather and cassis fruit complemented with wafts of concentrated blackberry, licorice, and black tea.
Palate: Classic Syrah, dark rich and concentrated. Balanced tannins and sweet fruit create an explosive and intense flavor.
