Kahn 2002 Colson Canyon Vineyard Syrah (Santa Barbara County)
- $42
Shows more of a cool-climate influence than the regular Syrah with white pepper aromas and thick tannins. Has a rich melange of blackberry, plum, coffee and tobacco flavors that finish long and harmonious.

Kahn 2000 Colson Canyon Vineyard Syrah (Santa Barbara County)
- Online Exclusive
- $38
Marginally richer and finer than Kahn’s Santa Ynez Syrah, with knock-your-sox off flavors of cherries and blackberries that flood the mouth. The tannins are quite thick and melted. Feels plush and velvety through the finish.

Kahn 2002 Syrah (Santa Ynez Valley)
- $30
A very good Syrah, full-bodied and warming, but dry. It shows dark stone fruit and cocoa flavors with a rich earthiness, and is soft enough to drink now.

Kahn 1999 Syrah (Santa Barbara County)
- $29
Very nutty on the nose, with chocolate and carob notes reminiscent of trail mix. Medium- to full-bodied blackberry fruit lies at the core, but the focus is elsewhere: leather, cocoa, dried spices, coffee and peanut were among the descriptors tossed around by our panel.

Kahn 2000 Syrah (Santa Ynez Valley)
- Online Exclusive
- $26
Richer and bigger in every way than Kahn’s regular Central Coast bottling. Brims with full-throttle flavors of blackberries and herbs dusted with white pepper, and the tannins are rich and fine. Loses a few points due to an astringent finish.

Kahn 2001 Syrah
- $13
Plenty of ripe flavors here, ranging from black cherries and cocoa through coffee, sage and dill. The structure is simple, with easy tannins and supportive acids. Seems like a pizza sort of wine.

Kahn 2001 Sauvignon Blanc (Santa Ynez Valley)
- Online Exclusive
- $15
Rather soft and candied, a ripely fruity wine with semi-sweet Lifesaver flavors of lemon and lime. Feels a bit heavy in the mouth, lacking acidity and zest.

Kahn 2001 Avelina Winery Merlot (Santa Ynez Valley)
- Online Exclusive
- $15
Rustic and heavy, with berry-cherry flavors and some astringency through the finish. Tannins are pronounced and thick. Drinks like a country-style wine, although it has no flaws.
