Kalyra 2001 Tucker's Run La Presa Vineyard Syrah (Santa Ynez Valley)

  1. $20
A rather earthy and closed wine, and pretty tannic, too. There are some blackberry flavors but the mouthfeel is tough, and the finish turns astringent. May benefit from five years of aging.  — S.H.  (3/1/2004)

Kalyra 2001 La Presa Vineyard Chardonnay (Santa Ynez Valley)

  1. $20
This wine has some ripe flavors of peaches and tropical fruits and is well-oaked. Yet it doesn’t come together into a harmonious whole, and there is also a bitter, almond-skin taste.  — S.H.  (12/31/2003)

Kalyra 1997 Buttonwood Farm Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon (Santa Ynez Valley)

  1. $30
Six years of age has not made this into a great wine. It is a hybrid of blackberry and vegetal aromas and flavors that wrestle for supremacy in the mouth. The tannins win.  — S.H.  (11/15/2003)
