Lakeside Discovery of a Seductively Sinful Syrah

On a gorgeously idyllic spring Sunday on Lake Casitas in Ojai...
Amidst flavorful craft beers...
dozens of California wines to be sampled...
 
and even wine yokes for sale...
I discovered my new favorite, life-changing, brain chemistry-altering, palate pleasing vino.
Winemaker Nick Elliott's skillfull touch is the driving force behind Nicora’s small-lot, Rhone-style wines out of Paso Robles. Just 100 cases a year...and then its gone...Mark my words...this guy's gonna win some awards...

I asked him about Buxom, a Grenache-based wine with a touch of Syrah, and my favorite of his creations...Euphoric.
