Testarossa 2007 Garys’ Vineyard Syrah (Santa Lucia Highlands)

Country: US / Garys’ Vineyard
Variety: Syrah California
Winery: Testarossa / Santa Lucia Highlands

A great Syrah, from a winery better known for Pinot. The wine shows true power in the blueberry, blackberry, mulberry, spice and smoke flavors. Yet it’s so elegantly constructed, with fine Central Coast acidity and imposingly rich, fine tannins. An important wine that should have an interesting future over the next 6–8 years.
