The 2005 Qupe amazed us as a great bargain, with flavors of pepper, red berries, and dried herbs, and a long and layered finish. The 2006 Central Coast Syrah follows in this tradition!
Winemaker's notes: This is one of our best bottlings yet of this wine. The relatively cool vintage in 2006 allowed for long hang time and great acidity. The riper, forward fruit aspects of the Paso Robles fruit are balanced by the acidity and spiciness of the cool climate Santa Barbara fruit. This wine is made with early consumption in mind, but if you are so inclined, and since this is a special anniversary vintage, you can certainly put in the cellar for 8-10 years.
