Score 96/100 · Drink 2009-2024, Robert Parker, Aug 2009

The mindboggling 2007 Bien Nacido cuvee is equaled by the 2006 Syrah Upslope, which I believe is a selection of what Jaffurs believes is the winery’s finest lots. Sweet aromas of charcoal, camphor, blackberries, smoke, and earth jump from the glass of this inky/purple-colored wine. Heady and full-bodied with plenty of minerality as well as admirable precision, it is extremely youthful, yet is already accessible. It promises to evolve for 10-15 years. One of the superstar performances in my tastings of Central Coast wines was the offerings from Jaffurs. Tel. and Fax: (805) 962-7003

Saturated ruby. Suave, strongly perfumed bouquet of blackberry, plum jam, fruitcake and incense. Fleshy dark berry flavors boast palate-staining depth and pick up smoky minerals with aeration. Very rich syrah with noteworthy finishing power and length. Leaves sweet dark berry and smoky mineral notes behind, eventually.
