title: Testarossa 2011 Garys' Vineyard Syrah (Santa Lucia Highlands)
description: A splendid Syrah, black in color, dry, tannic, acidic and rich in blackberry, currant, grilled meat, black pepper and toasty oak flavors that are incredibly complex and satisfying. Testarossa has a great history with this bottling, and while the wine doesn't have the immediately dazzling luxuriousness of the 2007, it's more ageable. Drink after 2016.
variety: Syrah
designation: Garys' Vineyard
