The Reward Santa Lucia Highlands Syrah
Santa Lucia Highlands, Central Coast, California, USA
2021 vintage. This is "The Reward" vs "The Initiation." The Reward is from a clone sourced from Côte-Rôtie. The winemaker, Bibiana, spent a bit o' time in the land of Stéphane Ogier in the NoRhô among other places. Out of magnum and supposedly only bottled in magnum. Holy bleep. This wine has two decades of repose ahead of it before tossing out a few bones. Tighter than a fireproof safe. Will outlive any of your friends/relatives over 65...even if they crack a c-note. Put these bottles in your will. 7.12.23.
