Tasty wine from a nice property. Foxen makes good value fairly intense wines and this is no exception. Plenty of cabernet blackberry character. (2005-08-05)

2002 Roll Ranch Syrah - this monster is only just beginning to show itself. Opaque black color stained teeth, tablecloths, fingers, anything that got in its way. Nose of smoked meat and blackberries. Tremendous concentration and fierce tannins. $80 at Falstaff, around $45 in stores (if you can find it). Always great. (2005-12-18)
