This is more along the lines of silky dark fruit than meat and pepper. Not my favorite style of Syrah but very well made

On the downslope, but still quite enjoyable.

Very 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.

Delicious 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.

Meaty, dark fruit with spicy oak. Still youthful. Good acid and structure.

Wow! What a surprise. Clear dried cherry, oak, cigar box on the nose. Can taste the alcohol but the age smooths it out. A treasure tonight.
