Cayuse Vineyards
Cailloux Vineyard Syrah
Walla Walla Valley, Oregon/Washington, USA
2012 Vintage. 14.2% Alcohol. Tons of Juniper Berries on the nose and taste. This is not my preferred flavor profile. Don’t understand the hoopla. Glad to have opted out, wish I had done so earlier. Washington’s SQN? No way.

Exceptionally young, this was an experimental opening. Probably the dirtiest wine I’ve ever had (and first cayuse fwiw). So stinky, to rival the most aggressive stinky cheeses. I loved it. Anxiously awaiting entry to the list.

One of the best US syrahs I ever had, well rounded, smooth.
