Tensley 2022 Colson Canyon Syrah, Santa Barbara
98 Points - limited
A blockbuster new Syrah from Joe Tensley, one of the Santa Barbara region's leading Syrah producers. Try this gem before it's gone.
96-98 Points Jeb Dunnuck: "The 2022 Syrah Colson Canyon Vineyard ratchets up the intensity and has a saturated purple hue as well as a killer nose of ripe black and blue fruits, graphite, ground pepper, and crushed stone-like minerality. Rich, concentrated, and powerful, it shines for its purity, has building tannins, and a great finish..If you take prices into account, dollar for dollar, these are some of the greatest wines out there."
94 Points Wine Spectator: "Displaying simmering intensity at the core, this dynamic red unfurls slowly, with blackberry and blueberry flavors accented by black olive, espresso and licorice notes as this gathers tension toward medium-grained tannins. Drink now through 2035."
Winery Notes: As many of our customers know, this year a long-held dream came true for us when we bought Colson Canyon Vineyard. Colson has been part of the Tensley line-up since 2000 and has been a real star for us, making Food and Wine’s Top Ten Syrah’s in America as well as twice making The Wine Spectator’s Top 100 list. This rugged vineyard always delivers some of darkest, most extracted wines we produce. After three years of drought, the 2015 vintage gave us that big extraction and then some. Look for notes of black plums and blackberries as well as vanilla, black and white pepper and smoked meats. This Colson is drinking well now but will continue to age nicely over the next 10 to 12 years.
