Note di degustazione
The 2014 Syrah Sierra Mar Vineyard, from the southern end of the Santa Lucia Highlands, shows a much denser and more powerful expression of the appellation. Black fruit, licorice, cloves and leather are pushed forward. There is no shortage of depth, but today, the Sierra Mar is a bit monolithic.

Even better, the 2014 Syrah Sierra Mar Vineyard might be the top Syrah out of this vineyard. Also inky and glass-staining, it offers killer notes of caramelized plums, smoked meats, licorice, cassis and pepper in a full-bodied, ultra-pure, elegant package. I love its mid-palate and this total blockbuster will knock your socks off over the coming decade or longer.
The 2014 Syrah Sierra Mar Vineyard is shaping up to be a real beauty. Silky and perfumed on the palate, the Sierra Mar conveys a total sense of finesse. Rose petal, lavender, spice and mint add an attractive upper register to the deep, plummy fruit. In 2014, the Sierra Mar offers a beautifully sketched expression of Santa Lucia Highlands Syrah. The 25% whole clusters are beautifully integrated.
