The 2012 is by far my favorite vintage of Nina Lee Syrah! First time that Serg has co fermented with Viognier. The Viognier has softened the Syrah while still keeping that great peppery taste and beautiful color. I have always loved the Nina Lee Syrah's, but this 2012 is so new and different! ❤️❤️❤️

Hmm. Very flavorful rich at first taste but no depth. Very strange. Normally a Syrah from Walla Walla brings complexity and a lingering penetrating finish. This one was more single note of mulberry, blue berry and some green notes that didn’t evolve. Anyway. Still enjoyable.

Nina disappointed me. Had expected so much more. The wine was lackluster and rather flat. Spiciness has disappeared. Dark red fruit that didn’t evolve.

Fruity W2 wine without the funky notes of the Rocks. Really a nicely made Syrah.

Decadent. Deep, rich Syrah. Extremely well balanced. Amazing structure. Fantastic finish. Absolutely awesome.
