Betz Family 2010 La Côte Rousse Syrah (Red Mountain)

Country: US / La Côte Rousse
Variety: Syrah Washington
Winery: Betz Family / Red Mountain

Once again, this cuvée blends grapes drawn equally from the Ciel du Cheval and Ranch at the End of the Road vineyards on Red Mountain. Imposing minerality underscores a tight, raspberry-flavored wine that seems like it’s soaked in liquid rock. A teasing barrel note adds threads of coffee liqueur and dark chocolate to the finish.
