2008 Lucia Pinot Noir Garys' Vineyard Santa Lucia Highlands (750ml) [SLC]

"95 out of 100 - .Made in a similar style, but even richer, is the 2008 Syrah Garys Vineyard. Approximately 35% whole clusters were used in this wines upbringing as well as 35% new oak. A terrific Syrah from this cool climate region, it boasts a dense purple color along with a seamless integration of acidity, tannin, alcohol, and wood. Hints of ink, graphite, blackberries, blueberries, and forest floor characteristics are found in this full-bodied, rich, but never overwrought or too heavy beauty. Enjoy it over the next decade." - WA
