Gramercy 2015 Forgotten Hills Vineyard Syrah (Walla Walla Valley (WA))
Cellar Selection
The winery's estate vineyard is a special spot in the valley for Syrah. Locked up on first pour, this wine opens to reveal aromas of raspberry, fresh chopped parsley, black pepper, cigar box, orange peel, violet, smoked meat and dried stem. The palate is light on its feet, fresh and focused, with herb and olive flavors along with firm, very tightly wound tannins backing it up. It brings a pleasing sense of freshness, requiring food to be fully appreciated. Enjoy after 2022, but it will thrive way beyond that. Sean P. Sullivan
