2020 WHITE HAWK
VARIETAL: Syrah
AVA: Santa Barbara County
AGING: 24 months in 88% New French Oak
TASTING NOTES: Like wrecking a record number of 80's sedans at the demolition derby during your third driver’s test this month. Maple-plum hoods meet black olive rooftops in a metal-on-metal crunch, an espresso-drenched twelve-car pileup, a funeral pyre of black-fruit majesty for your behemoth of a truck. Dirt bikes soar overhead. Marionberry fireworks leave plumes of chocolate and smoked brisket. You’re kicking black earth and loam well into the upper deck as you drift around the arena. The instructor riding shotgun wrote you off long ago, but just wait until he sees this jump.
DRINK NOW: 30 minute decant CELLAR: Now through 10+ years
