Slightly leaner and more austere than the 2005 Syrah Bien Nacido Vineyard, the 2005 Syrah Melville Vineyard exhibits a deep ruby/purple color along with an elegant, medium-bodied, finesse-styled personality. Drink it over the next 7-8 years.

Novy Family Page-Nord Vineyard Syrah 2005
Novy Page-Nord Syrah shows an unusual level of complexity on the nose. It is full of rich jammy fruit but also an earthy, even mineral character. On the palate it has good weight, rich dark fruits, and a unique black coal element. A combination of good natural acidity and a slight tightness at the back of the palate leads us to believe that this wine will only become more complex and interesting with several years in the cellar.

Huntington Petite Sirah 2005 Huntington Petite Sirah 2005 is one of those wines that will appeal to a wide range of palates. The flavors are pure and concentrated and the tannins provide adequate structure without being intrusive. This dark red, almost purple wine is uncomplicated and very enjoyable to drink. Huntington Petite Sirah will be a great wine to serve at your next party. Just hope that nobody spills it on the carpet.

Description more details These first wines have been made in very small amounts, literally hundreds of cases in each instance. On this scale, I am able to know each individual barrel and how its small nuances might contribute to a final blend of wine. These are the details that transform winemaking into an art, and these are the details that will always rule the day at Januik Winery. Mike Januik Bottle Size: .750ml

The "reasoned fight" approach agricultural management calls for minimal treatments if necessary in the vineyard. It evaluates all of the farmer's economic objectives and risks while being respecful to the enviroment. It calls for use of non-residual products whenever possible. Use of herbicides in the vineyard is eliminated. Sulphur treatments are few and the powder form is never used for the sake of human health.

Turley Hayne Vineyard Petite Syrah 2005
Not surprisingly, one of the great Petite Syrahs made in this vintage has again come from the Hayne Vineyard. Turleys inky/blue/purple-tinged 2005 Petite Syrah Hayne Vineyard possesses a boatload of tannin as well as a fabulously concentrated attack and mid-palate. This full-bodied monster reveals beautiful purity and intensity as well as a superb attack and richness. Give it 4-5 years of cellaring and drink it over the next 20-25 years.

Ridge Lytton West Syrah 2005 Rated 95CG
6% Viognier. There is a sense of refinement and pure precision about this bottling that not only moves it to the head of the class but sets it in a class all its own. Very deep and impeccably structured, it eschews runaway ripeness in favor of layered richness and real nuance, and it begs for comparison with the fine wines of Cote Rotie rather than its more blustery California kin. It is as classy and sophisticated as local Syrah is likely to get, and it is bound to age famously by dint of balance...
