Steely like its name, with a tightly sculpted, sleek form building salty weight along the length of the palate to a sour, crab apple finish. Young. Steel Post is a 4 acre parcel located in the middle of their 22 acre vineyard, and was planted in 1983.Tasted: 13 October 2017Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:ON | $30.00 | 750ml | winery direct |
