94 Points Wine Enthusiast: Though David Haskell's Syrahs aim for elegance, they are also quite fun and engaging. Light in the glass, this one, which includes 7% Viognier, starts with aromas of fresh red currant, raspberry and wild sage. The palate zips with energy, flashing white pepper spice against flavors of cherry compote and orange rind.
