Nice blue fruits notes on the palate. Some spicy notes to provide complexity. Good acid to provide grip. Nice long finish. Tasted along side a 2010 Maison Bleue Boushey Syrah and a 2016 Novelty Hill Stillwater Creek Syrah. The Structure was my favorite. Nice job Brian.

Decanted at length to allow to bloom. Once in glass this reveals distinctly Washington State Syrah aromas; blackberry, blueberry, violets, black olive, cinnamon, sandalwood, toast all mingle with the warmth of alcohol. On the palate a medium-plus frame supports smooth textures with moderate acid and tannins with warm-above-moderate alcohol. Flavors show ripe blue and blackberry flavors with, violet pastilles, sweet anise, cinnamon, sandalwood and notes of black olive, sage and bramble. the finish lingers pleasantly
