Va Piano 2009 Syrah (Columbia Valley (WA))

Country: US /
Variety: Syrah Washington
Winery: Va Piano / Columbia Valley (WA)

Half of the fruit was sourced from the outstanding Lewis Vineyard, and the dense, dark, purple berry flavors are compelling. Highlights of black olive, smoke, and a bit of stem and earth add complexity. Give this one some breathing time, or cellar it for a few more years to soften the muscular tannins.
