2011 Syrah

Columbia Valley, WA- "2011 Syrah La Cote Rousse is a richer, fuller Syrah that offers up plenty of chocolaty black fruits, crushed rock, pepper, liquid smoke and iron to go with a medium to full-bodied, balanced, concentrated, yet elegant and classy feel on the palate."

Napa, CA- "The 2011 Syrah Eisele Vineyard is rich, dense, textured and also incredibly primary. Smoke, tar, game, black pepper, plum and licorice notes emerge...Once again, Araujo's Eisele Syrah is incredibly distinctive and intense."

Italy - "An exotic melange of dark blue and black fruit, smoke, incense, licorice, violets and game wraps around the palate in [this wine]. Rich and voluptuous, the 2011 Syrah shines in this intense, warm vintage. A long, beautifully persistent finish rounds things out in style."
