  • 2006 Holdredge Syrah Lovers Lane Vineyard - USA, California, Sonoma County, Russian River Valley (7/10/2009)
    Crap week at work, stumble home on Friday in need of inspiration. Grabbed something at random from the rack, lookie there, it’s a Holdredge. Why not? So, no expectations, just popped and poured to go with my chicken pot pie.

A real hurly burly kind of wine–fruit and acid, sweet blackberries and a sour bite that nestles right in with that pot pie–I declare myself revived. (91 pts.)

That will do it. This is a nice one. Trying to keep my hands off my remaining and give them a year two more to see how they further develop.

The class of the Syrahs from John, if you ask me … and they age beautifully.
