K Vintners Description
Absolutely stunning, generous, graceful and dynamic. Notes of black cherry, blueberry, grapefruit peel, and black olive pulls you deeper, accented by deep dark rose, dried herbs and black tea with a touch of crushed stone.Winery.
James Suckling: 96 Points
This shows earthy character, with ground spices, black pepper, plum pith and cocoa-dusted dark cherries. So broad and velvety, but at the same time fresh and fleshy, with full body and layers of polished, chalky tannins. Lingering and smooth. Co-fermented with 4% viognier in concrete vats.
Wine Advocate: 95 Points
Co-fermented with 4% of Viognier, the 2020 Syrah The Beautiful is marked with a classic Walla Walla mineral essence and open-knit expression that offers delightful spicy aromas that merge with floral and potpourri elements. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is spicy, elegant and fresh, with hints of iodine and brown baking spices before ending with a lingering and spicy finish. This fantastic, food-friendly wine is set to be released in September of 2023. Yum!
Jeb Dunnuck: 95 Points
The ruby-hued 2020 Syrah The Beautiful is another perfumed, pretty, beautifully balanced 2020 from this team. Black cherries, mulled strawberries, ground pepper, rose petals, and smoked meats define the bulk of the aromas, and it’s medium to full-bodied, has fine tannins, and a great finish. It picks up a classic Syrah bloody, gamey character with time in the glass and is going to drink brilliantly over the coming 10-12 years. This comes all from the Powerline Vineyard in the Walla Walla Valley and was co-fermented with 4% Viognier, not destemmed, and aged in 40% new French oak.
