Tensley 2023 Colson Canyon Syrah

Great deal on the highly rated Tensley Colson Canyon Syrah!

We sold this same exact wine last year for $45. We just received an offer we could not refuse and as always, are passing the savings on to our great customers!

The 2023 Tensley Colson Canyon Syrah is an exceptional Santa Barbara County red and an exceptional value at its new price of just $29.99, reduced from $45. Crafted by Joey Tensley, one of California’s most respected Rhône-variety specialists, this bottling captures the character of Colson Canyon: deeply colored, intensely flavored, and unmistakably Syrah.

Both Jeb Dunnuck and Vinous Media awarded the 2023 vintage an outstanding 96 points,a rare level of critical praise for a Syrah now available under $30. At $29.99, this is a remarkable opportunity to stock up on a serious, cellar-worthy California red from a terrific producer!

From Jeb Dunnuck (96points): All Syrah from Colson Canyon Vineyard, fermented with 30% whole clusters and aged 10 months in 25% new French oak, the 2023 Syrah Colson Canyon Vineyard is deep purple-hued, medium to full-bodied, concentrated, and pure, with fabulous aromatics of blueberries, wild strawberries, violets, pepper, and flowery incense. It has terrific purity, a pure, layered mouthfeel, and a great finish. I love it today, but this cuvée ages gracefully as well. Drink 2025-2040.

From Vnous Media (96pts): The 2023 Syrah Colson Canyon Vineyard once again shows how unique this site is. Black cherry, plum, licorice, crushed rocks, graphite, cured meats, iron and chalk are some of the many notes that grace this complex, wonderfully dynamic Syrah. There's so much going on here.
