Note di degustazione
(13.9% alcohol): Moderately saturated bright red-ruby. Slightly musky aromas of blackberry, blueberry, licorice, menthol and black pepper, with a whiff of game. Dense and juicy, with harmonious acidity giving shape and lift to its dark berry, pepper and violet flavors. Not a particularly fleshy or sweet wine but offers lovely inner-mouth perfume and saline minerality. Finishes with a fine dusting of tannins and subtle length. Suave Syrah, not at all overdone--and much more polite than the 2013 version at the same stage. I like this.

The straight 2014 Syrah from Columbia Valley is a beautiful, layered and elegant Syrah that a ton of floral character as well as ripe red and black fruits, crushed rocks and a hint of black olive. Reminding me a top Cote Rotie, this elegant, finesse driven 2014 offers medium to full-bodied richness, fine tannin and a great finish. It will have 10-15 years of longevity.
