Kendall-Jackson
1993 Durell Vineyard Syrah
Editor, Connoisseurs' Guide to California Wine

Creamy oak scents lift and enrich ripe raspberry and cherry fruit in the moderately deep aromas. Sweet cream and nutmeg spice override the berryish component, and oak lasts a bit longer than fruit in flavors.

1992 Grand Reserve Syrah
Editor, Wine Enthusiast Magazine Cellar Selection.

Chewy, yet smooth. Crisp, aggressive fruit and roasted notes from oak aging.

Kendall-Jackson
1992 Grand Reserve Syrah
Editor, Connoisseurs' Guide to California Wine 1 Star. A fine example of a type or style of wine.

Rich oak, ripe raspberries and touches of chocolate come together nicely in the clean, medium-deep aromas of this well-defined young Syrah, and its flavors of berries, spice, pepper and earth keep it squarely on the varietal track.

1991 Grand Reserve Syrah
Norm Roby, San Jose Mercury News, CA One of three Syrahs, "Best of California" issue.

Big spice, ripe fruit, beefy flavors; oaked, but smooth finish.

1991 Grand Reserve Syrah
Editor, Press Democrat, CA 3 Stars. Good.

Full bodied wine that has a nice toasty smokiness, yet it's fruity and appealing.

1990 Vintner's Reserve Syrah
Editor, Wine Spectator

Dense and peppery but there's also a tight core of plum and berry-scented fruit. It packs in lots of tannins on the finish, so you might want to celler this one until 1995 or so to let it soften.

1990 Vintner's Reserve Syrah
Editor, Wine & Spirits

Oak tones in the nose, leading to plummy-black pepper flavor and finish. Solidly built with lots of body and strong tannins.

Anthony Dias Blue, San Jose Mercury News, CA Superior.

Spicy and rich with lush texture and wonderful smoky, velvety qualitites.

Lots of power and substance. Big and peppery, dense and chewy. Vivid raspberry-plum fruit. Very good.

1990 Proprietor's Syrah
Editor, Wine & Spirits

Very smoky aromas; full and flavorful, with the lightly peppery fruit of a Rhone-style palate and a long berry finish.

1990 Durell Vineyard Syrah
Robert M. Parker Jr., Robert Parker Wine Advocate

A provocative bouquet of bacon fat, toasty new oak, smoke and black fruits.

1986 Durell Vineyard Syrah
Harvey Steiman, Wine Spectator Wine Pick

Rummaging around the cellar for something interesting for dinner with old friends, I brought up my last bottle of Kendall-Jackson Syrah Durell Vineyard 1986. It had held up beautifully, wowing everyone at the table.

2015 Vintner's Reserve Syrah
Tom Marquardt and Patrick Darr, Capital Gazette, MD

The coastal vineyards around Santa Barbara are producing some of California’s best syrah. Oodles of fresh boysenberry and plums with a delightful spice element. This is an amazing value for one of the best syrahs we have tasted recently.

2014 Vintner's Reserve Syrah
Chuck Hill, Wines Northwest Wines of the Week

Kendall Jackson winemaker Randy Ullom selected grapes mostly from the cooler coastal region in Santa Barbara County. The wine was aged in a combination of French and American oak to produce a wine that is balanced and structured. Aromas and flavors of jammy blackberry and blueberry mingle with earthy mineral, cola and spice, finishing with smooth tannins.

2014 Vintner's Reserve Syrah
Tim Fish, Wine Spectator Recommended Rhône-Style Reds From California

Soft but zesty, with easygoing notes of black raspberry, orange zest and bittersweet chocolate.

Kendall-Jackson
2014 Vintner's Reserve Syrah
Matt Kettmann, Wine Enthusiast Magazine Very Good

Sticky tar, dense blackberry, leather, soy and lilacs combine for a thick nose on this well-priced, widely available bottling. Beef char, dense purple flowers, blackberry jam and tar consume the palate, which is chewy with a strong tannic structure.

Charles Olken, Connoisseurs' Guide to California Wine 1 star, Best Buys in the Market

Last, but by no means least, the sturdy *KENDALL-JACKSON Vintner’s Reserve Santa Barbara County 2014 is a substantial, very specifc Syrah that, while a very good buy at its winery-suggested price, becomes an out-and-out steal when found at a discount as it often is.
