| Robert Parker | 100 RP - 2004 Alban Vineyards Lorraine Vineyard Estate Syrah - 100 pts Perhaps the finest offering from John and Lorraine Alban, the 2004 Syrah Lorraine Vineyard will undoubtedly eclipse the 2003. From a vineyard planted in 1990, it boasts an opaque blue/purple color in addition to intense aromas of white flowers, graphite, and blueberry liqueur. In the mouth, an additional note of blackberries emerges along with plenty of tannin, superb purity, and stunning intensity. This singular effort represents one of the New World's greatest expressions of Syrah. |
