Agharta Syrah Central Coast 2017

Pro tip: Blowing on the wine in your coffee mug will help convince the rest of the people in your Zoom meeting that your tea is hot. -- my cousin Adam 

Just sayin’! All kidding aside, anyone who knows Agharta is already gone and putting 6 in their cart. Because...AGHARTA! Made for years by the inimitable Pax Mahle, the label was taken over by the legendary Bob Lindquist of QUPE, who made ONE, count it, ONE vintage of this before closing up shop. GUESS WHO showed up to clean out the warehouse after we tasted it??!! THE PRICE!! 

90 POINTS from Anthony Dias Blue, over 50% OFF, and a simply outrageous, highly drinkable, drink-it-with-utter-abandon Syrah packed with purply black currant, boysenberry, tapenade, roasting coffee beans, even a bit of high quality dark chocolate (thinking of you, TCHO Chocolate in SF) and an easy-going, juicy, uber-friendly texture. A gargantuan no-brainer for all-day quaffing in our book!! 

Will go fast...we bought it all but it’s not enough!
