Saturday, January 23, 2016 - This is heaven. Just the nose, without a sip, jumps out with wonderful sweet flavors of dark fruits, burnt wood, olive brine, and who knows what else. This is what I love about Cayuse – you can just get lost in the nose. On the palate, some chocolate, brine, bacon, raw meat, and yes, so many other things. No bitterness. The “funk” is nicely integrated and not overpowering. And then back to the nose, where we now find bacon fat, tart red cherries. The palate starts to show some hints of green herbs underneath the delicious fruit, with almost coca cola like tartness making an appearance. The finish just expands and goes on. This is memorable.
