Washington Wine Report
-
By Sean Sullivan
(Matthews Estate Syrah Columbia Valley) Leaps up from the glass with blueberries, plum, baker’s chocolate, and boysenberries. Silky berry and chocolate flavors glide across a palate buffeted by soft tannins. Lingers on the finish. A thoroughly delicious wine. 100% Syrah. Lawrence, Stillwater Creek, and Va Piano vineyards. Aged 19 months in French oak. 14.8% alcohol. 337 cases produced.

Delicious - earthy, smooth and well balanced. A winner.

Opened on Friday; really mellow without sacrificing it's "Syrah-ness". Vacuum corked until Tuesday (traveling), and just as good. I'm impressed with the staying power, especially with a 3-day break in consumption.

Mute in the first day. The second day was better with generous dark ripe fruit and some meat. However the wine lacks some tannin structure and I would have liked som more Syrah markers.
