Lucia 2006 Santa Lucia Highlands Syrah
Lucia 2006 Syrah "Susan’s Hill Vineyard." While similar to its sibling, it displays more complex aromas, with a stronger floral component, and meatiness and pepper. It boasts an amazing palate impression, full body, and a multidimensional, skyscraper-like feel in the mouth, yet remains light on its feet. This stunning Syrah should drink effortlessly for a decade or more. The Syrah from these two vineyards is generally harvested 30-40 days later than their Pinot Noir, which demonstrates the fascinating micro-climate this sector of the Santa Lucia Highlands enjoys.
