Pinot specialist Tanner turns her attention to Syrah made from this well-regarded vineyard, owned by the family that owns Bien Nacido.

Waves of currants, cherries, cocoa, orange, cola, pepper and cinnamon constantly change, and the wine should continue to develop through 2010.——S.H.(12/1/2008)—— 89
