Table Eleven 2021 Syrah
2021 Table Eleven Syrah Thompson Vineyard, Alisos Canyon, Santa Barbara
San Francisco Wine Panel 94 Points
In the past Table Eleven has produced Syrah of great elegance from Thompson Vineyard and this is yet another fine example. Surprisingly gracious, the aromas are a focused medley of bright raspberry, sour red cherry, pomegranate, Campari and violet scents, elegantly accented by spice notes of pink rose, pink & black peppercorn and toasted hazelnut. It is sleek in mouthfeel, supple and extremely long-lingering on the palate, where the tannins are polished and the flavors attractively piquant. Raspberry, cherry pit, Campari and pink peppercorn are highlight notes at the end and this beauty really opens up with airing. Delicious as it already is, it is certain to grow ever finer for at least the next 18 months and likely after. 58 cases produced.
