WINEMAKER'S NOTE
Notes: Inky black color with a red rim. Soaring nose of smoky spice and meat, plums, blueberries and violet highlights.

Super smooth on the palate, this wine shows outstanding oak and tannin integration with framed fruit and a long, deep, broad finish.

Super smooth on the palate, this wine shows outstanding oak and tannin integration with framed fruit and a long, deep, broad finish. Cameron Confidential: This is actually two single vineyard designates blended together (one from Santa Ynez and another from Westside Paso Robles). We would have bottles them separately but they were simply better together. IN fact, because we blended them together we lost the more marketable sub-appellations. Sourced from a winemaker famous for Rhone Varietals who hasn’t scored anything less than 90 points from Parker or Tanzer on any syrah he has made since the 90’s. This gentleman actually has some excess capacity at his winery and will be sourcing for us another syrah out of 2009. Booyah. (hide)
