Lot #1544. Sine Qua Non Syrah Imposter McCoy 1997

Description: Consists of 2 Bottles, 0.75L
Score: 96 RP.
"I have already wolfed down two bottles of the 1997 Impostor McCoy (529 cases) with equally voracious friends. A thick, juicy, massive Syrah, it gushes copious quantities of licorice-infused blackberry fruit offering smoke, coffee, and meaty notes. The wine is mouth-filling, teeth-staining, and loaded . . . . easy to drink, but I suspect it will age easily . . ." Wine Advocate #127, Feb 2000
Provenance: The Tower Cellar
Notes: 2cm, 1 scuffed wax capsule, 1 nicked, lightly scuffed labels.
