Winemaker Randy Ullom does a consistently remarkable job with the Vintner’s Reserve line at K-J, crafting wines that have impressive dimension and outstanding balance despite high production numbers. Spicy on the nose, the 2013 Syrah exhibits layered richness on the palate and notes of blackberry and plum, with a savory, meaty aspect as well.
