A lush and succulent Syrah that is bound to pair well with most anything, but would really be exceptional with braised brisket or chicken. Intense aromas of raspberries, strawberries, vanilla and iris lead into an inviting crushed-velvet texture and round mouthfeel, closing with a clean medium-length finish. Drink now. 1 Note

This is mostly Syrah, but has a splash each of Grenache and Petite Sirah as well. It’s solid and generous, though less compelling than either the Merlot or the Cabernet from Milbrandt. Strong vanilla and tobacco flavors overtake the fruit, and the earthy tannins lack focus, but it’s fair value. 1 Note

Drier and crisper than most California rosés and as a result more elegant. With a pretty orange-rust color, it shows savory flavors of orange pekoe tea, tangerine zest and barely ripe raspberries and apricots, sprinkled with white pepper and vanilla. Sophisticated and compelling, this is one of the best rosés of the year. 1 Note

Earthy and meaty, with aromas of dark cherry, plum and a whiff of volatility. Once things settle, it evolves into a full and flowing, semigeneric red with earnest grape and blackberry flavors along with cola. While it’s hard to peg this as varietal Syrah, it’s well made, balanced and full. Good for folks who like full-bodied wines. 1 Note

Cherry soda, cherry candy; however you define it, this has a sweet cherry character. Light and fruity, it does offer some black pepper and loam character as well, elevating it above the level of simple soda pop wine. 1 Note

Dry and rather rustic, this Syrah has some green minty flavors alongside the blackberries, and the tannins are on the harsh side. But the price isn’t bad. Give it a chance with babyback ribs. 1 Note

Hot and harsh, with semi-sweet flavors of black currants, chocolate and pepper. Drink this rustic wine with barbecue. 1 Note

Begins with bold mint and prune aromas, and it’s also sort of foxy and sweaty. The palate is better, with saucy, tart fruit that leans toward tomato, herbs and dry berry fruit. Solid and round enough; decent with a few faults. 1 Note
