2006 Syrah
Columbia Valley
Our 2006 Syrah blends lots from three fabulous vineyards in our portfolio: Dineen Family, a great spot North of Zillah in the Central Yakima Valley, Chandler Reach, on the Yakima River within earshot of Red Mountain, and Stillwater Creek, a legend in the making in the Frenchman Hills near Royal City. This Syrah showcases the different styles and quality of these three vineyards in one integrated wine.
Not a shy wine, it will immediately fill your nose with tones of black and red fruit, finish with a long, lingering palate and offer pure enjoyment throughout.
Pour in glass, swirl, sip, and repeat!
Warning: User may experience a black tongue.

"Smooth and polished, with a spicy layer
wrapping itself around the generous, ripe
blackberry, blueberry and plum fruit, working
in wafts of black pepper and licorice as the
tangy finish persists. Drink now through
2016. 225 cases made." --HS (Dec 03, 2008)
