Deep garnet color, nice thin legs & a nose of black cherrier & raspberries. Black cherry & currants in fruit forward, smooth tannis and a mild spice of tabacco oak in a medium finish. This is a wonderful syrah and is drinking wonderfully right now(as it has for the past two years). Not a big fan of Columbia Winery but this is a constant favorite in my cellar. If you can find more of this vintage buy it...I only have 2 more bottles left in my case.

Rich nose, still plenty of fruit. Similar taste with round mouth feel, ripe berries. Moderate finish.

Boy, what a really excellent Columbia Valley Syrah. Black seeded fruit, some spice, but really well balanced. Great mouthfeel.

Bright berry flavors are nicely balanced by a classic syrah mouthfeel and firm (but not harsh tannins). Meat and spice on the finish. A tasty syrah.
