Columbia Valley Syrah
Columbia Valley, Oregon/Washington, USA
Easy dinner red winner. Pretty tart but lots of body. Went along great with salmon. Would buy for any dinner party, any time.

Feb 8th, 2018Stewed blackberry, plum, and black olive. So jammy it nearly reads as sweet. I found this to be overblown on its own but it would make a great accompaniment to BBQ.

Jul 24th, 2017Changing my mind about Syrah and Washington state. Balanced and delightful. Medium start, smooth finish. Red meat companion.

Jul 3rd, 2017This is a good Syrah, but just a good one. Fruity, not too dry.

Light cherry and cranberry notes. Light tannins and acidity with a smooth finish.

Light cherry on nose but with a little hay bale. Single vineyard founded in 1983 and is small family owned. Excellent body and taste of cherries. Smooth and lingering finish.
