Since assuming control of the winery from her late husband, Seth, Magan Kunin has continued to produce some of the Central Coast's finest bottlings of Rhône varieties. Her 2020 Santa Barbara County Syrah is one such example, loaded with cool climate lightness yet laden with depth and spice, this is a wonderful iteration of California Syrah at its most refined. 

93/100 - The 2020 Syrah Santa Barbara County has deep black cherry, currant and blueberry aromas with accents of powdered sugar, charcuterie, violet and spearmint. The full-bodied palate has concentrated, youthfully gregarious fruit, yet it's light on its feet with finely chalky tannins and vibrant acidity. It has a long, latent finish and will benefit from 2-3 years in bottle. 185 cases were made. - Erin Brooks, Wine Advocate

92/100 - The 2020 Syrah (Santa Barbara County) is a fabulous appellation wine and a terrific introduction to this range. I tasted it after all the vineyard designates and it showed beautifully. Floral accents open first. Spice, tobacco, cedar, dried herbs and black pepper add tons of complexity throughout. - Antonio Galloni, Vinous 

 

On the nose, spiced blackberry fruit aromas abound, blended with hints of smoked meat, wild herbs and olives.

On the palate, its medium bodied and juicy, yet full of ripe dark fruit and sweet tannins. Silky and elegant, this bottle perfectly encapsulates Kunin's Rhône-inspired winemaking style.

Drink up to 10 years after release.

Match with lamb kleftico or grilled aubergine.

After several years working for other producers, he set his sights on producing a range of wines reminiscent of the elegant Rhône wines he loved, settling on the... Read More >>
