2013 Charles Smith K Vintners The Beautiful Syrah, Walla Walla Valley, USA (750ml)

TASTING NOTES:

Coming all from the River Rock vineyard in 2013 (It normally has a small amount from another site), the 2013 Syrah The Beautiful is a complete, medium to full-bodied, seamless and perfectly balanced Syrah that lives up to its name. Giving up lots of blackberry, licorice, wet herbs and olive aromas and flavors, I love its overall focus, tension and purity, and it certainly doesnt lack for length. Give bottle 2-3 years in the cellar and enjoy through 2028.
