Columbia Valley Syrah
Columbia Valley, Oregon/Washington, USA
Served a little too warm, so the alc. is too prominent. Dark peppery fruit and smoky notes on nose. More like a southern Rhône-grown Syrah than northern. 375 ml.

N: blackberry, smoke, hint of vanilla
P: tart blackberries, black cherries, plum, touch of black pepper, herbs, licorice, craggy stones , a few flower petals mixed in, espresso granules. I think it will be even better in a couple more years.
Worked beautifully w tri tip rubbed w garlic, pepper, shiitake mushroom powder, and a hit of soy sauce with a side of mushrooms mixed with potatoes and caramelized onions.

Strong pleasant nose, light bodied but with lots of flavor. Very drinkable in any setting. My mom will love this.

One of my favorite Syrah from Washington State. Walla Walla. Deep ruby red with a wonderful nose. Silky and burst of black fruit somewhat dry. Had it at Zinc in San Antonio.
