ok northern rhone style syrah. Soft, lacking mid palate and the typical syrah pepper bite. Acidic, which maybe due to being to young, but doesn't have the tannins to balance it out. Think it would just soften over time, but just be an "ok" wine. Gave it nearly two hour decant, so was hoping for a bit more

Had this bottle at Matt's in the Market in Seattle. Lots of structure here, the sharp finish you expect of a Washington Syrah. The bottle was probably a bit young to drink maybe wait another year or two so the flavor profile can develop more.
