Siduri’s Gary’s Vineyard is indeed from the Santa Lucia Highlands plot you’re thinking of. It’s a dark, heady wine, runs in the $40s and has a great story: the Lees dumped the whole clusters in a tank and stomped on them a la I Love Lucy (yup, pigeage). The 2005 vintage is already sold out, but I think you can still find it at a few restaurants in Healdsburg. I believe Roar made slightly less wine from these grapes (400 cases as opposed to the Lee’s 700) and they charge $50 a bottle. But both wines are characterized by their medium body and dark berry fruit. A win-win either way.

Any thoughts on differences between the two (pricewise and tastewise?) Would love to know.
