2018 | Beckmen Vineyards | Purisima Mountain Syrah

Its deep ruby color is followed by a spicy, peppery Syrah with plenty of gamey, bacon fat notes, medium to full body, a rounded, supple texture, and a great finish.

Reviews:

• Wine Enthusiast: There’s a subtle floral streak on the nose of this bottling, with crumpled violet, lavender and lilac aromas, but also tart elderberry and white pepper. Baked boysenberry and more violet shows on the rich sip.

• Jeb Dunnuck: Leading off the Syrah releases, the 2018 Syrah Purisima Mountain Vineyard is a larger production cuvée that was all destemmed and aged 18 months in barrel. Its deep ruby color is followed by a spicy, peppery Syrah with plenty of gamey, bacon fat notes, medium to full body, a rounded, supple texture, and a great finish. Drink this classy, character-filled Syrah over the coming 4-6 years.

Producer Information

The goal of Beckmen Vineyards is to become the most prominent family owned vineyard estate in Santa Barbara County. Rhone style wines cultivated from Purisima Mountain Vineyard will be their contribution to the next chapter of winegrowing in the Santa Ynez Valley. To appreciate this goal is to be able to understand the history of the Santa Barbara Wine country and the pioneering spirit of Tom Beckmen and his family. In 1996 Beckmen Estate Vineyards purchased Purisima Mountain Vineyard a 365-acre Estate overlooking the Santa Ynez Valley, where there are ideal soils and climate for Rhone varieties. They began planting in 1997 and have completed a total of 130 acres at this time. The high density plantings are designed to optimize different hillside exposures and elevations.
