    Kuleto Estate 2005 Syrah (Napa Valley)

    Age would be the salvation of this wine, because right now, it's pretty hard and tannic. It shows proper balance, being dry and smooth, with good acidity and a fine core of blackberry, currant, pepper and violet flavors. But who's going to age a Syrah? Anyhow, try in a few years.
