In 1997, we invited the Swiss wine journalist elite to taste the finest Syrahs from the USA blind against the icons of Europe. Two wines received the perfect score from René Gabriel at the time: 1995 Syrah The Other Hand from Sine Qua Non and 1995 Syrah Lorraine from Alban Vineyards. They beat everything in the blind tasting, Guigal's LaLas, Jean-Louis Chave and also Chapoutier's Elite. Man, did that make waves back then. A great wine that deserves your attention. It'll flood you with raspberry fruit, with earthy notes and a smile on your face! Only when it reaches the palate will you experience complete bliss. You will sip the wine contentedly and enjoy the great texture, the silky tannins and the wonderfully fresh and mineral finish. Today you don't have to be invited to Alban's wedding to enjoy this wine, but you must hurry!
