Bergevin Lane Linen Red 2011
Columbia Valley, Washington, United StatesClassic Washington syrah nose of pepper, poultry spice with meaty, floral, black cherry, vanilla, chocolate aromas. The attack is dry and full, if somewhat tight with fresh acidity. The palate is a mix of coffee, pepper, meaty, black licorice, black cherry, prune, spice and vanilla flavours. A bit rustic but solid. Needs a year or two to drop some dry tannins. Try this with grilled lamb chops.Tasted: 25 May 2013Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:BC | $25.00 | 750ml | private wine shops |
