2006 Syrah Horse Heaven Hills, $38
Score: 91
"Crisp and focused, with a nice bead of dark plum and blueberry flavors shooting through the middle, shaded with hints of roasted meat and dried tomato. The finish sails on nicely. Drink now through 2016. 370 cases made. –HS"

2006 Bunnell Family Cellar Horse Heaven Hills Syrah, $38
Score: 90
This bottling was skipped in 2005, but it’s back, with fruit from McKinley Springs and Alder Creek. It’s all Syrah, and has a flavor profile different from the other Bunnell Syrahs, with soft, lush, polished, silky tannins saturated with earthy, composty flavors. It’s a big wine, loaded with cherry fruit, earth, tar and butter; despite its girth, it’s a lapdog of a wine that could be cellared, but why wait? — P.G.
