Gramercy Cellars
Walla Walla Valley Syrah
Columbia Valley, Oregon/Washington, USA
This 2018 rendition is a little lighter and crisper than prior vintages I’ve had. Nose is quite bright with red berry fruit and vaguely smoky crushed rock dust. In the mouth it’s medium bodied, has a very soft mouthfeel, and nice, buoyant acids. Ready to drink right now, it’s like a very friendly take on a Saint-Joseph. I prefer the deeper, earthier prior vintages I’ve had, but this is very nice in its own, understated way.
