Monte De Oro 2006 Synergy 65, Estate Grown Red (Temecula Valley)
- $33
A structured proprietary red blend from Temecula Valley. The tannins remain a tad chewy, leathery even, though the wine’s got some hints of fig, cherry and cinnamon that keep it interesting.

Monte De Oro 2006 Reserve, Vista del Monte Vineyard Syrah (Temecula Valley)
- Online Exclusive
- $70
A big burly Syrah from this Temecula producer whose goal it is to become the premier winery of Southern California, the wine is loaded with plummy black fruit and a peppery mouthfeel, its oakiness derived from the almost three years it spent barrel-aging in new French oak. Not for the meek at 15.6% alcohol, it finishes a tad sweet.

Monte De Oro 2007 Estate Grown Vista Del Mar Vineyard Syrah (Temecula Valley)
- Online Exclusive
- $34
Estate grown in Temecula, this is a huge Syrah at 15.5% alcohol with all that implies—lots of deep, dark plum, heavyweight tannins and bittersweet chocolate. Might it mellow? Only time will tell.
