Rust Wine Co Similkameen Valley Syrah 2016

Cawston, Similkameen Valley, British Columbia, CanadaBe warned: Rust Wine Co. put out three syrahs in 2016. This one is Similkameen-based with sibling syrahs from the south Okanagan and Golden Mile Bench. It appears to be the superior sib, showing south Cawston's windswept rocky soils' aptitude for the grape. Again, red fruit rules here, with savoury cherry, dusty raspberry, kirsch, red and black pepper ruling a full, smooth palate. Tannins are worn smooth, and the finish is very warming, taking away from the elegance of the palate. Best now with a rack of lamb.Tasted: 04 August 2019Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:
