96 pts Limited new Gary's Vineyard Syrah from Pisoni Vineyards Lucia label. previous vintage 96 Points Jen Dunnuck: "I loved the Lucia Syrah Soberanes Vineyard. This beauty gives up a dense purple hue as well as a Hermitage-like perfume of black raspberries, spring flowers, ground pepper, leather, and exotic spices. More bacon fat and mineral notes develop as it sits in the glass, and it's full-bodied, with a layered, seamless texture, ultra-fine tannins, and a great finish. It has enough tannins to warrant 2-3 years of bottle age, but this is beautiful stuff." ...Year in, year out, the latest releases under the Pisoni family’s Lucia label are not only some of the top wines I taste from the Santa Lucia Highlands, but also some of the greatest values I taste from all of California. Note, the Lucia label is used for everything other than their estate Pisoni Family Vineyard Pinot Noir, which is released under their Pisoni Family label."
