Terrific wine from Maggie Harrison at Antica Terra. The wine is made in her place in the Williamette Valley, but she gets the syrah grapes from Santa Barbara county (she used to be Manfred's assistant at Sine Qua Non, so she might purchase from him. Not sure). Anyway, this is the "Blue" version of Lillian, which for me boasts an added level of elegance than the (still excellent) regular bottling. Terrific wine, and in my opinion is drinking just about perfectly right now. Great stuff!
