Studio Series is a Cab-Syrah winemaker blend featuring a different painting by artist/winemaker Heidi Barrett on the label each vintage, showing off her creative work both inside and outside of the bottle. Welcome to the studio!
Blend: 80% Syrah, 14% Cabernet Sauvignon, 4% Petite Sirah, 2% Cab Franc
Tasting Notes: Tasted 1/15/26 by HPB
Dark opaque garnet in color, this Syrah-Cab blend leads with prominent aromas of concentrated black fruit, salted plums, and Syrah’s characteristic savory, meaty tones, along with subtler notes of fennel and fine leather. Bold and balanced on the palate - deep flavors are wrapped in velvety texture on the initial impression, evolve in the mid-palate, and linger in an amazing long finish. This year’s blend is similar to our previous Art Bus wine that was a fan favorite from 2008-2016. Would be delicious with Chinese-style ribs or braised lamb. An elegant work of winemaking artistry will delight with its richness and complexity for many years to come.
