The 2007 The Pixie Syrah (100%) was sourced from the Kiona and Ciel du Cheval vineyards, both located in the Red Mountain AVA. It was aged in 60% new French oak. Medium crimson-colored, it delivers aromas of smoke, game, bacon, lavender, blueberry, and plum. Mouth-filling, spicy, and layered, this balanced effort will evolve for 2-3 years but can be enjoyed now because of its fleshy personality. Gorman Winery, owned, operated, and staffed entirely by Chris Gorman, began in 2002 and currently produces 3000 cases out of a Woodinville warehouse. Tel. (206) 351-0719; www.gormanwinery.com

A young wine, this is still resolving itself in the bottle, with astringent tannins, a hint of sweet cracker and rich, raspberry fruit flavors drenched in wet stone. Good concentration and persistence, with threads of moist earth, cola and tanned leather.——P.G.(12/31/2009)—— 90
