The 2020 Lindquist Family Wines Syrah from the Central Coast is a testament to Bob Lindquist's mastery in winemaking. This wine displays a vibrant ruby red color with aromas of black pepper, lilac, and sun-kissed black fruits, accented by a touch of spice. The lively mouthfeel, combined with black cherry and mouthwatering acidity, culminates in well-managed tannins and a long-lasting finish, reminiscent of the great wines of the Northern Rhône with a distinct California touch.

Wine Critic Reviews

Wine Enthusiast (90): Fresh and easy aromas of berry and cracked pepper show that Syrah can be enjoyable in many occasions. The flavors are fresh and tangy on the palate, with blackberry, baking spice and white pepper flavors.
