The 2016 Eric Kent Syrah Kalen’s Big Boy Blend is a captivating expression of Sonoma County’s terroir, showcasing the region’s ability to produce bold yet nuanced wines. With a well-deserved score of 95 points, this blend delights with layers of dark blackberry, smoked meat, and hints of cracked pepper, all wrapped in a velvety texture. Its vibrant acidity and fine tannins create a harmonious balance, making it approachable now but with the potential for aging. Perfect for a cozy evening by the fireplace or paired with a hearty beef stew, this wine delivers quality that far exceeds its price point, making it a smart buy for any wine enthusiast.
