Purple in color. 15.1% ABV. Co-fermented with a small amount of Viognier. Stunning nose of black fruits, olives, espresso and smoked meats. Full bodied with perfect acidity. Bright, vibrant and well balanced with a really compelling sweetness of fruit. Blackberry, blueberry liqueur, boysenberry and a touch of pepper on the palate. The finish is long and supple with silky tannins. Unique Washington Syrah that really stands apart from the field. Best over the next 3-5 years.
My rating: 95 points.
