Disappointing, especially from this winery and vineyard, at this price. It’s high in acidity and tough in tannins, and oak just adds a caramelized sweetness to the jammy raspberry and cherry flavors. This Syrah isn’t going anywhere, so drink up.——S.H.(8/1/2010)—— 84

A huge disappointment, coming after the previous two vintages. This ’05 is Porty sweet and sharp in acids, with extreme, medicinal flavors of blackberry jam and raisins.——S.H.(8/1/2009)—— 83

The wine is a serious Syrah that further establishes Kynsi’s mastery of this variety, which is so hard to make into a complex wine. Drily tannic, it shows a fabulous range of flavors, among them blackberries, black cherries, chocolate-covered mints, licorice candy and plum jam, and even lighter, pastry notes of pecan sandy cookies. Might age for a while, but probably at its best now.——S.H.(6/1/2008)—— 93
