92 Pts, James Suckling | 90 Pts, Anthony Mueller, Wine Advocate

This blend of 50% Syrah and 50% Cabernet Sauvignon offers a generous nose of cherry, blueberry, plumb, and cocoa. On the palette, this wine over-delivers with ripe, velvety dark fruits and a touch of vanilla character delivered in a lush structure that is perfect to enjoy now or lay down for a few years.  While this is not a traditional Old World style blend, here in the Columbia Valley of Washington State, we grow both of these varieties so exceptionally well that it only makes sense to put them together in a blend.
