The 2006 Syrah Garys’ Vineyard is nearly as profound. While it plays it slightly closer to the vest, extraordinary fruit purity, and beautiful creme de cassis, graphite, and subtle smoke characteristics are noticeable in this full-bodied Syrah. It possesses more elevated tannins and less succulence and plushness, at least at present, than the Rosella’s cuvee. It should also evolve for 7-8 years. One of the superstar performers in the Santa Lucia Highlands, Roar produces both spectacular Pinot Noirs and Syrahs. These two offerings are not to be missed! Tel. (831) 675-1681; Fax (831) 675-1683
