Corliss Syrah Columbia Valley 2005

Rating: *****

Compelling aromatics of campfire, smoked meat, berries, and earth rise up on a dark, brooding aroma profile. On the palate, a big, multiple swallow wine full of dark fruit and chocolate. The oak is beautifully integrated along with lithe tannins. 15.1% alcohol. 96% Syrah co-fermented with 3% Viognier and 1% Grenache. Stillwater, Birch Creek, Stonetree, and Evergreen vineyards. Aged 34 months in French oak (64% new). 15.1% alcohol. 388 cases produced.
