Funk Estate Vineyard Syrah Rocks
Rogue Valley, Southern Oregon, Oregon, USA
Inky in color with a short purplish rim.
Fruity nose of red and black fruits with tobacco, oak, licorice, light vanilla, smoke, chocolates, barnyard and light herbs.
Full-bodied and smooth with medium plus acidity and fat legs.
Dry on the palate with black currants, plums, cooked cherries, spices, oak, licorice, light vanilla, tobacco, chocolates, light vegetables, coffee, light cola and peppercorn.
Long finish with fine grained tannins and tangy raspberries.
This young Syrah from Oregon is already drinking nicely, but needs 5 years in the bottle to mature properly. Rich and extracted, yet elegant.
Nicely balanced and spicy, with a soft mouthfeel.
Needs a couple of hours to open up properly, but good right out of the bottle too.
This Single Vineyard is soft and elegant. Smooth and fruit forward.
Not as good as the 2014 and 2019, but will continue to age nicely in the next 10 years.
A good quality wine with good potential to become a 93+ point wine.
A small production of less than 1,600 bottles made. Unfined and unfiltered.
14.4% alcohol by volume.
91 points.
$68.
