2016 Estate Grown Reserve Syrah

Product Description

Cougar Crest Estate Winery makes Reserve wine only when we decide we have a unique lot of wine that raises above all the others. These Reserves usually have the longest hang time and are barrel aged longer to concentrate the flavors.  Barrel aged for 2 years in 20% new Hungarian oak barrels.

From the ancient riverbeds that brought the rockiest soil to the Walla Walla Valley, this vineyard designated Syrah from the cobblestones shows the savory, gamey, and herbaceous side of Syrah. Blueberry, blackberry, soy and earthy truffles flood the senses.  Rich viscosity and fine grained tannins coat the palate wrapping smoky arms around a long powerful finish.
