WINE CLUB ONLY (Spring 2024 Release)
Once again in 2020 our Syrah from Red Willow came into the winery already perfectly balanced – not too much sugar, and just enough natural acids – a very rare combination in the heat of eastern Washington State. When that happens, as winemakers we just try to get out of the way and let the juice turn into something great!
The nose opens with notes of blackberries, smoked meats, vanilla, sage, rosemary and thyme. The same savory flavors dominate, backed by lush blackberries and marionberries. The long finish features medium-weight, slightly chalky tannins that yield to lingering memories of all the opening impressions and classic Red Willow minerality. This wine is delicious now and has the potential to age into something truly extraordinary in the years to come. “Yum in a bottle!”
