2014 Reynvaan Family Vineyards Syrah In the RocksWalla Walla Valley more |
5/5/2024 - Ex-Ray Likes this wine: 98 pointsFifth bottle tasted since 2017, arguably the best. It's still garnet, with no amber edge, but it has become slightly translucent. Powerful aromas typical of this wine, the first Reynvaan we ever tried, vintage 2007. The same Northern Rhone style of roasted meat, toasted French oak, and blackberries. Rich and full on the palate, perfectly balanced, no significant tannin. The finish is long and fabulous. I had thought it might start to decline by now but not at all. Still at its peak, should have several more years there. |

5/4/2024 - BRR wrote: NRI think this is in a great spot right now and I don’t see it improving, though it’s in no immediate risk of going downhill. Lots of spicy raspberry and plum with olives underneath. This may have suffered from following an unbelievable 2014 Horsepower, but this wine was really awesome. |

2012 Reynvaan Family Vineyards Syrah The Contender In the RocksWalla Walla Valley more |
5/4/2024 - 3daywinereview.com wrote: 96 pointsDay 1: A stunner. These Contender wines are off the charts. Minerality streak like no other. Green olives, white pepper, blueberries, earth, stone, slate, tar and violets. Super complex wine and long finish. Great acidity. This should drink well for another five years. 96 points |

4/16/2024 - caroleandjay Likes this wine: 95 pointsLoved this. Light with elegance but also power. Definitely more elegant than the early years, but this has the meat/funk that was lacking in 14. |

4/13/2024 - Radboy wrote: 94 pointsDeeply defined dark berry with an amalgam of tart cherries, hibiscus, and dark earth. Layers of complexity, albeit on the dark side of wine drinking. No glamour here! Gritty, hedonistic in a non-sumptuous way, smacked you in da f*cking mouth with a fist full of gravel kinda wine. Pinot drinkers run for the exits! This brings a point to the end of the pencil in its definition and clarity, albeit into the dark waters… |

2013 Reynvaan Family Vineyards Syrah StonessenceWalla Walla Valley more |
3/28/2024 - randyjc wrote: 93 pointsLast bottle of 6 consumed over the years. The wine evolved from a dark, tarry, wine of mystery to something more akin to Cote Rotie and now a bit softer. The main adjective to apply is delicious. Both red and blue fruit, a bit of tar remains (lovely!), charred meat, a bit of black olive. Long and lush. If feels entirely mature, so if I had more I’d be looking to drink them in the next 2 or 3 years. |

2011 Reynvaan Family Vineyards Syrah Foothills ReserveWalla Walla Valley more |
3/17/2024 - Fugu Me Likes this wine: NRPnP, consumed over three days. Definitely more savory, earth, and spice notes than fruit. A lot of depth to this wine, it was equally good with food (filet mignon) and by itself with plenty to contemplate. No hint of fading, or even peaking. This stayed the course through the several days it sat opened under cork on my kitchen counter. 1 person found this helpful, do you? Yes - No / Comments (3) |

3/10/2024 - markcic Likes this wine: 94 pointsThis is an awesome bottle of wine. I had purchased a a half case of assorted reynvaan wines and this was one of the bottles and it was the best. Dark cherry, plums, currants and hints of spices leasing to a long finish. Just beautiful. Going to see if I can find some more. |

2014 Reynvaan Family Vineyards Syrah The UnnamedWalla Walla Valley more |
2/20/2024 - markcic Likes this wine: 92 pointsWith some grilled steaks. Opened about two hours prior to dinner then drank slowly over the next few hours. The nose is red fruit. The palate as first was all cherry, as time went on the cherry took a back seat and the dark red plums set in with a touch of tobacco and raw meat. The finish was moderate to long. |

2/22/2024 - ChrisinCowiche wrote: 92 pointsSeering fruit, acid, mineral. I swear I tasted salt at the finish. Not in a bad way at all but an unusual interesting saline component of its minerality. Paired perfectly with our delayed Valentines dinner of lamb meatballs, carrots, and cheesy mashed potatoes. Dessert was an orange ginger cake which was also a perfect match. |

2/20/2024 - Shay.Aldriedge Likes this wine: 94 pointsAlways enjoyed the Reynvaan offerings, but this was my first time with their Contender. It is co-fermented with Marsanne (as opposed to the traditional Viognier). 97 Syrah/3 Marsanne. Quick one-hour double decant. |
