Proper 2012 Estate Syrah (Walla Walla Valley (WA))
Editors' Choice
The aromas on this Rocks District wine pop with huckleberry, black and green olive, plum and mineral. It's dazzlingly polished and textured in feel, with nuanced, detailed smoked meat and savory flavors. It nonetheless retains an exquisite sense of balance and restraint, capped off by an outrageously long finish. Sean P. Sullivan
