The 2019 Syrah Bien Nacido Vineyard is a blend from the X and Z blocks done with 50% stem inclusion. Bold and punchy, the 2019 is super-finessed from the very first taste. There is a bit of youthful austerity that will likely soften in time, but that in no way detracts from the wine's balance. Dried flowers, tobacco, mint and a distinctly red-toned fruit profile all grace this wonderfully transparent, alluring Syrah from Piedrasassi.
