Orofino Syrah 2022
Cawston, Similkameen Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThe Similkameen Valley is home to this pure fruited, varietally correct syrah that takes me to the Rhône, where it would compete favourably with many examples grown in the historic region. The excellent 2022 vintage boasts of violets and cherry, complemented by a fragrant dusting of pepper that lingers throughout its lengthy finish. It is aged in a small combination of new French oak and concrete tanks, with the remaining portion aging in neutral barrels for 17 months. This is an exceptional wine, and we have found, through experience, that it ages effortlessly for a minimum of 10 to 15 years.Tasted: 25 June 2025Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:| BC | $31.65 | 750ml | winery online/direct, select private retailers, restaurants |
