Note di degustazione
The 2009 Syrah Steal Plow Kivelstadt Vineyard is a big, burly wine loaded with blackberries, graphite, menthol, tar and licorice. The 2009 is something of a brute, but it reveals plenty of persistence and no shortage of personality. With time in the glass, some of the rougher edges soften, allowing the radiant fruit to emerge more fully. Readers who can give this some time will be treated to a delicious bottle of Syrah. Anticipated maturity: 2013-2017. I have been a big fan of the Landmark wines since visiting the winery nearly a decade ago. The Chardonnays in particular remain some of the most fairly priced Chardonnays in California. Tel. (707) 833-0053

Opaque ruby. Moroccan spices and pepper accentuate dark berry preserves on the nose. Nicely focused and energetic syrah with good clarity to its blackberry and pepper flavors. Juicy, fresh and quite varietal in character. Finishes with broad, fine-grained tannins, solid grip and lingering smokiness.
