Notes from the Winemaker:

Antiqv2s is derived from the Latin word Antiquus, signifying something that happened or existed in former times; ancient or old; associated with, or bearing the marks of the times of long ago. Syrah is believed to have been introduced into the Rhone Valley of France by Crusaders on their return from Ancient Persiam or by the Roman legions of Emperor Probus from Syracuse in Sicily.

299 cases of Syrah from the harvest of 2006 Anno Domini were produced from the Susan's Hill block of Gary Pisoni's vineyard that lies on the southern foothills of the Santa Lucia Highlands in Monterey County.


Ratings & Reviews

95 Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate:
"The 2006 Syrah is a profound Syrah offering gorgeous, meaty notes intermixed with subtle hints of roasted herbs, spring flowers, licorice, pepper, and loads of blackberry and cassis fruit. It is a rich, full-bodied, seamlessly constructed Syrah with no hard edges. The acidity, tannin, alcohol, and wood are beautifully integrated into a masterpiece of Syrah winemaking. Enjoy this beauty over the next 7-8 years." -Robert Parker (6/2008)

90 Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate (2007 vintage):
"The earthy, spicy, slightly herbaceous, smoky 2007 Syrah Garys’ Vineyard reveals plenty of blue and red fruits, good acidity, medium to full body, and a long finish. It should be even better with another year or so of bottle age, and should drink nicely for 7-8 years." - Robert Parker (12/2009)

92 Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate (2005 vintage):
"One might argue that there is not enough of a difference between these two wines to justify separate bottlings, but the producer (Gary Pisoni’s son, Jeff) obviously thinks so. The 2005 Syrah Garys’ Vineyard exhibits a dense ruby/purple color, big, sweet, smoky, berry aromas, grandiose levels of fruit, notions of smoke and tar, and a dense, round, opulent mouthfeel. Drink it over the next 5-7 years." - Robert Parker (8/2007)

No kidding January 10, 2012
Reviewer: cderivel@gmail.com from Lake Sherwood, CA 91361  
I just got the 06 on January 10, 2012 and none of the magic promised by a 95 pt rating ever happened. Are you kidding me? I think that guy had too much wine!
