Their co-fermented blend of Syrah and Sangiovese, La Croce Proprietary Red, is typically a very seductive style of wine. The 2007 is still primary, but it reveals abundant fruit as well as a beautiful sweet jammy strawberry and berry fruit-scented nose with hints of new saddle leather, tobacco leaf, and spice in the background. It is the estate’s most endearing offering for early drinking. Stolpman Vineyards continues to produce impressive wines under the guidance of the highly regarded Santa Ynez winemaker, Sashi Moorman.Tel. (805) 688-0400

This is the costliest of Stolpman’s new reds and easily the best. It impresses for the depth of flavor and classic, dense structure. A co-fermented blend of Sangiovese and Syrah, it shows imposingly complex layers of dark stone fruits and berries, dark chocolate, bacon, dusty Indian spices and sweet, smoky sandalwood, wrapped into powerfully rich but gently ground tannins. Very fine, approaching the profound. Now–2013 before it loses freshness.——S.H.(4/1/2010)—— 96
