Tin Barn 2001 Coryelle Fields Syrah (Sonoma Coast)
- $32
From a region typically thought of as being too cool for the variety, this Syrah possesses that characteristic cracked-pepper scent along with strands of dried herbs that add immense appeal to the solid core of blackberry fruit. Long and tart on the finish, with tannins that are so soft, they glide across the palate.

Tin Barn 2000 Jensen Lane Zinfandel (Russian River Valley)
- $24
A single vineyard wine that’s dark and rich and high in alcohol, but manages to hang onto balance and harmony. It brims with blackcurranty, plummy fruit and a green, minty note that adds an herbal interest. The dryish aftertaste lasts for a long time.

Tin Barn 2001 Zinfandel (Russian River Valley)
- Online Exclusive
- $25
Quite bright on the palate, with firm tannins and pretty, zippy cherry, spice, tar, raspberry and herb flavors. The texture is a bit powdery but should calm down nicely with a little more bottle age.

Tin Barn 2002 Coryelle Fields Vineyard Syrah (Sonoma Coast)
- $32
Rich, soft and complex, with intriguing flavors of black cherries, coffee, nutmeg and chocolate. It tastes like a pie with all those ingredients baked in. Yet it’s dry, with a velvety mouth feel. It’s also quite oaky in sweet wood sap.

Tin Barn 2005 Red (Napa Valley)
- $34
This is a Bordeaux blend from the Chiles Valley district. Right now it’s a bit rustic, with sweet, jammy blackberries and cherries and some stiff tannins. The oak sticks out. Should develop for a couple years.

Tin Barn 2009 Hi Vista Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc (Carneros)
- $18
With zesty acidity and dry pineapple, lemon, lime and green grassy flavors, this is a nice white wine to drink for a cocktail with little appetizers ranging from puff pastries to egg rolls to smoked meats.

Tin Barn 2008 Coryelle Fields Vineyard Syrah (Sonoma Coast)
- $25
This has intense acids and tannins that make it feel a bit rustic. But despite the structure, it has delicious, upfront flavors of blackberry, plum, currant, beef jerky, sweet oak and pepper. Drink now.

A bright, tangy style that shows ripe cherry, blackberry, cassis and smoke flavors up front. Fresh and light on the finish.
