The most pinot like syrah one could imagine! Maraschino cherries blast you initially, but nice tannic grip and lingering bright red finish make this an interesting treat. Yum!

Co-fermentation Syrah and Viognier. Initially a very off-putting volatile acidity. I've never experienced VA to blow off, but this did and revealed a solid wine from Oregon.

Clearly a cool vintage. Super lean, bright red fruit. Loved it!

Cranberry, crunchy red fruit, green herbs, high acid, lean, much better with food than on its own

90% Syrah / 10% Viognier from Yamhill-Carlton in Willamette! Could easily be N Rhone

Great first glasser. After a few, the tang starts to notice more and eventually bother.
