The value-priced 2013 Syrah is a winner that over-delivers. Co-fermented with 2% Roussanne and from a mix of vineyards spread throughout the Columbia Valley, it has solid freshness in its ripe darker fruits, spice, licorice and olive aromas and flavors. Aged 18 months in 15% new French oak puncheons, this medium to full-bodied charmer has tons of fruit, no hard edges and a great finish. Buy a case and drink it over the coming 3-4 years.
