Dark purple in color with a wide purplish rim, and medium plus intensity.
Strong nose of black currants, plums, tobacco, licorice, light oak, spices and chocolate notes.
Full-bodied with medium acidity and long legs.
Dry and fruit forward on the palate with black plums, cooked cherries, currants, light wood, spices, coffee, dark chocolates, earth, herbs, peppercorn and tobacco leaf.
Short finish with soft tannins and tangy raspberries.
This 5-year-old Syrah blend from Columbia Valley is drinking nicely right out of the bottle, but better after 2 hours of airtime.
As it opens up, more earth notes show up and bring more complexity. Feels like a heavy Southern Rhone red.
This 5 year old Syrah is drinking at its peak, and will continue to drink nicely in the next few years.
Rich and fruit forward. Soft and elegant, with a mouth coating feel. Spicy and complex.
A blend of 70% Syrah, 22% Carignan and 8% Mourvedre.
13.5% alcohol by volume.
