Kendric Vineyards 2006 Marin County Pinot Noir

Blueberry • cranberry • plum • cardamom • mace

Tasting Notes

Blueberry, cranberry and plum fruit elements gradually yield to the vineyard's characteristic cardamom, mace, sandalwood, tea and tobacco components as the wine breathes. The general flavor profile skews toward the dusky and cool. The '06 is a bit more focused than the '05 and has a slightly firmer structure in terms of both acidity and grip. In its youth, the wine, particularly the finish which starts out pretty tight, benefits from decanting. This wine has been purposely bottled without a foil capsule.

Kendric Vineyards 2006 Shenandoah Valley Syrah

boysenberry • savory game • herbs de Provence • dark fruit • stony grip

Tasting Notes

Boysenberry and a more savory game and herbs de Provence nose. A sweet, darker fruited core, firmed up with a tar note and a stony grip on the finish. A step more restrained than the '05 in terms of ripeness and oak-- less mocha and more meat and spice. Closer to the '04, but a bit more Rhone-like. For me, the most interesting Syrah release to date. This wine has been purposely bottled without a foil capsule.
