Mar 23rd, 2017Very closed upon opening. Develops after an hour with cracked peppercorn, blackberries and smoke. Some percentage of Viognier gives an aromatic lift to this Red Mountain Syrah.

Feb 15th, 2016Delicious Yakima Valley Syrah from the infamous Delille Cellars (2005 Vintage)
brambly rich black fruit, pepper crusted pancetta, eucalyptus and fresh violets; upfront tannins and great acidity.

2007 was perhaps the best year if many great WA vintages. ZZ Wei did a nice painting of Red Mountain for this wine. This was an early Chris Upchurch-made wine.
