Lot #926. Cayuse Vineyards Syrah En Cerise Vineyard 2017

Description: Consists of 2 Bottles, 0.75L
Score: 95+ ST.
"Bright red-ruby color. Slightly darker and more brooding on the nose than the Cailloux Vineyard Syrah but with very pure, youthful scents of black raspberry, smoked meat, black olive tapenade, black pepper, minerals and violet; more Brune than Blonde. Dense, juicy, savory and light on its feet, with subtle sweetness leavened by surprising acidity and dark flavors of boysenberry and violet. Notes of minerals, spices and pepper add to the wine's mid-palate energy. The very long, palate-staining finish leaves the taste buds quivering. Today I prefer this to the Cailloux for its balance and light touch. Although slightly imploded, it's already easy to taste. A great vintage for this Syrah bottling." Vinous.com Dec 2020
Provenance: The Banyan Cellar
Lot Location: Orange County
