Floral perfume. Others say cool climate syrahs are light and airy. This ones no exception. Almost drinks like a Pinot. No game or smoked meats. Mild acids and moderate tannins. — 9 years ago

Worth a purchase? Love Rayas and very few California Grenaches...

It is WA. Gramercy makes excellent wine across the board & Alder Ridge is a killer site for Grenache. 2011 was a cold vintage, so the wines are in line with a cooler climate than normal. I love Gramercy wines, they will not be the same as Rayas though.

Alder Springs Vineyard Pinot Noir Rosé 2013

I figured since the blanc de blanc was drinking so well that I would try the rose too. It remains the darkest sparkling rose i’ve ever seen, like a Tavel in color. It’s really rich with the red fruit, but much more integrated than a year ago. Also has a creaminess that helps keep the acid in check. A really interesting sparkler that will continue to improve as the fruit comes into balance with everything else. — 8 years ago

Alder Springs makes Thingz with Zings! Does anything come from this place that isn't a laser or lightning bolt? Must make hair stand on end when you walk through it. I can just picture @Hardy Wallace picking his grapes looking like he had his hand on a van de Graff generator... — 9 years ago
