Much more Southern Rhone than expected. Close my eyes and it's La Crau.

Pours garnet in color. ON THE NOSE: jam, with a hint of savoriness. ON THE PALATE: stewed fruit, blackberry red berries and vanilla towards the end. A splash of heat on the finish. Medium body long finish.

Typical savory Cayuse nose, Provençal herbs, meaty, high toned fruit. Entering a nice drinking window. Very little tannin. Quaffable stuff.

Amazing how fruity this Syrah is... And perfect with some delicious pizza from Pauline's.

Savory, sexy and satisfying. As usual, Cayuse Syrah is seductive stuff. If I think of more adjectives that start with "s", I'll let you know.
