Highland Estates Alisos Hills Syrah 2002

Santa Barbara County, Central Coast, California, United StatesAn impressive new series from KJ. Look for smoky, licorice, spicy, cardamom, vanilla, and black cherry aromas mixed with floral, tobacco and barnyard notes. Soft, round, elegant entry with good acidity balance. Very spicy, vanilla, tobacco, black licorice, black raspberry, peppery mineral flavours with a smoky, black cherry finish. Good finesse and elegance despite the fact it's made from relatively young vines.Tasted: 08 June 2005Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
