2002 Caldwell Vineyards Syrah - 94 POINTS Connoisseurs' Guide · 94 POINTS Robert Parker's Wine Advocate · 93 POINTS James Laube, Wine Spectator

"They don't get much bigger, richer, fuller, deeper or riper that this absolutely fully stuffed offering from Jeff Cohn. Never on to eschew the density and extract available in the big reds, Cohn has here delivered a blockbuster that will wine friends among those who can accept the weight and complexity in this one without minding its substantial (15.9% alcohol). For, make no mistake about it, this wine trades its amazing intensity for its spiking heat in the finish. It will certainly age well, but it is likely to show best in its first decade."
