Delmas Syrah Walla Walla Valley 2012

Rating: *****

Price: $65

A new benchmark for this winery that shows more fruit than is often seen on Rocks wines. It brings complex notes of huckleberry, plum, smoke, chocolate, flowers, and orange peel. The palate is rich with exquisite, seamless blue fruit flavors with smoked meat accents showing a vibrant texture that leads to a hyperextended finish. A very pretty, very precise, and shamelessly appealing offering of Rocks fruit. 92.5% Syrah, 7.5% Viognier. Aged in French oak (50% new). 14% alcohol. 75 cases produced. Sample provided by winery.
