title: Amador Foothill Winery 2000 Hollander Vineyard Syrah (Sierra Foothills)
description: Captures Syrah's wild and woolly side, with jammy, wild berry flavors that taste fresh from the fermenter. The acidity is sharp, almost green, and there are stemmy, chlorophyll notes. From 3-year- old vines. Shows promise, but the vines need age, and the wine needs tweaking. —S.H.
