title: Roar 2001 Pinot Noir (Santa Lucia Highlands)
description: Only 94 cases of this first-ever wine from Gary Franscioni, of Garys' Vineyard. Not for fans of delicate Pinot Nor, this is a big, ripe, outsized wine stuffed with flavors ranging from cherries and raspberries to cola, chocolate, Oriental spices and tobacco. Silky in the mouth, although the acids are young and sharp.
variety: Pinot Noir
