Kendall-Jackson’s longtime winemaker, Randy Ullom, has a deft hand with Syrah and his expression of this classic grape variety in the Vintner’s Reserve lineup never seems to disappoint. This vintage shows a bit of heft through the mid-palate with notes of blueberry and plum. A touch of spice adds to the overall complexity but it really sings on the finish.
