I'm trying to find it here in OK. I had it at a friends house, and they got it in California driving through Monterey.

Ahlgren Vineyard

Ventana Vineyards Syrah 2001

Quite powerful fruit and acidity. Aged well, lots of sediment required decanting. Some funk on the first night, gone on the second. Good, but not as good as the Paso Robles Syrah of previous years.

Winemaker's comment: Deep & dark. Classic Syrah bouquet w/ bright, spicy flavors. Rich & complex, fine finish. Unfined/unfiltered. Bottled May 2004.

Love Byington Sauvignon Blanc. It's a nice medium-bodied wine that can be paired with many meals and still hold its own. — 10 years ago

Gewürztraminer 2012

Oily aromas of tinned apricots and lychee. Classic body, ripe and a tad boozy, as I oft like Gewürz to be. 2012. One of the better Cali examples I've had. — 10 years ago

Big fruit dialed back by welcome acidity. Still holding up well. Good tannins in the background. Not much heat from the booze. — 10 years ago
