Community Tasting Note

  April 15, 2013 - This outstanding bottle was graciously provided by Motz at the tasting I hosted on Saturday evening. Really dark and opaque in color. Has a powerful Columbia Valley nose of blueberries and vanilla - but also with hints of earth and spice. Full-bodied, very rich and silky. There's tremendous depth to its plum and blackberry fruit. Just a little too much oak on the long, rich finish though. Surprisingly tannic for a domestic Syrah. This is still a baby and should improve quite a bit over the next several years as the oak and tannins integrate more fully.
