Top Source 2019 Walla Walla Valley Syrah Syrah (Walla Walla Valley (OR))
This is a meaty, balanced Syrah with restrained alcohol and one purpose in life: provide optimal pleasure when opened. The aromas capture that special moment when the fat from a roasting pork shoulder drips onto the red-hot coals of an open fire. Other aromas include dark raspberries, black olives, marjoram and fresh-cracked white pepper. The flavors are equally evocative, with blackberries, thyme, aged balsamic vinegar and a mild streak of citrus. Michael Alberty
