Syrah · Central Coast
100 points from Robert Parker.
“There are around 280 six-packs of the fabulous, virtually perfect 2004 Syrah Seymour's Vineyard. An inky/blue/purple color is followed by an extraordinary bouquet of bacon fat, roasted meats, creme de cassis, forest floor, and hints of black olives and pepper. Opulent and full-bodied with thrilling levels of concentration, this amazing effort is John Alban's hommage to his father, Seymour. Give it another 2-3 years of bottle age, and drink it over the following two decades. The wines of John and Lorraine Alban are about as spectacular as one can find anywhere in the world. Alban is committed to aging his big Syrahs longer in barrel, believing it will concentrate the wines and add additional complexity.”
