2021 | Alban Vineyards 'Patrina' Syrah | Edna Valley Sake Ono One of the more dazzling

One of the more dazzling whites to look at as it sits in the glass

and wild bramble—then this is the wine for you

Dominant of fresh red fruit

but whereas Mouton-Rothschild possesses that peacock's tail

2021 | Alban Vineyards 'Patrina' Syrah | Edna Valley Sake Ono One of the more dazzlingThe 2021 Patrina checks in as 90% Syrah and 10% Viognier that was bottled in March of 2024. It has a beautifully perfumed, complex, nuanced style in its darker berry fruited, peppery, floral violet, and subtle orange blossom like aromas and flavors. I love its overall balance, it has silky, polished tannins, and just a classic, seamless, incredibly impressive style. Its a terrific introduction to the wines of this incredible estate. 94 Pts Jeb Dunnuck
