...after years of begging (seriously eight years), I finally received an offer for two blocks of Syrah from Michael Larner in Ballard Canyon. What makes this vineyard so unique is that it sits on limestone and marina sand. Most of Ballard Canyon is clay/limestone, which makes a very dense wine with great freshness. Sand brings more elegance to the finished wine. This Larner Vineyard Syrah has so much electricity and vibrance. It is intoxicating on the nose with super crunchy bright red fruit erupting out of the glass, raspberries, black cherries, and garrigue come to mind. The palate is bright, and the sweet oak tannins bring tons of tension to the wine's naturally bright acidity. This wine was aged in 66% new French oak, and they were some of our finest barrels we purchased in 2019. This wine is pure class. | Bret Urness for Levo Wines
