Lot #260. Alban Vineyards Syrah Alban Estate Lorraine 2006

Description: Consists of 2 Bottles, 0.75L
Score: 100 RP.
"Named after his raven-haired Irish wife, the 2006 Syrah Lorraine, which comes from more sandy soils, is another prodigious effort. Like all of these wines, it is a remarkable wine of extraordinary intensity, with a stunning nose of blueberries, bacon fat, camphor, and even darker blackberries, along with unreal minerality and definition for a wine of this size and power. Full-bodied, with profound intensity of flavor as well as purity, this is another wine that spent nearly three and a half years in barrel prior to being bottled unfined and unfiltered. While there are 2,500 six-pack cases of the Reva, there will be only 350 six-packs of the Lorraine." Wine Advocate #190, Aug 2010
Lot Location: Orange County
Estimate: $325
