This wine is the perfect balance of 50% Grenache and 50% Syrah grapes grown at Paredon Vineyard. This vineyard is located on the oceanside of the Santa Barbara mountain range. The 2009 Paredon Ridge has a rich ruby color with aromas of leather, black cherry, pepper and spice. Hints of caramel, blueberry and a touch of cinnamon spice round out this wine with medium tannins and a smooth finish.
