Epoch Estate Wines 2021 Syrah, York Mountain

The 2021 York Mountain Syrah is one of the highest-scoring wines of the vintage in the entire Central Coast, flirting with perfection! Epoch Estate Wines is the ambitious vision of owners Liz and Bill Armstrong to create world-class Rhône-style wines from the unique and historic terroirs of West Paso Robles. The York Mountain Vineyard is a profound piece of California wine history, located seven miles from the Pacific Ocean, where the original Central Coast's first bonded winery was established in 1882. This site's high elevation (1,500 ft.) and distinct sand and sandstone soils—which contrast sharply with the limestone of their other vineyards—result in a cooler climate Syrah with natural freshness and savory complexity.
