Columbia Gorge Syrah is rare indeed, but this makes a strong case for its Northern Rhône style. Aromatically enticing, there's a big espresso streak running through the core, along with dark notes of smoke and licorice and moist earth. The fruit touches on blackberry, black cherry and cassis, with a wrap of toasty oak. All in all it's a dense and detailed and varietally true wine.
