Lot #878. Cayuse Vineyards Syrah Cailloux Vineyard 2014

Description: Consists of 1 Bottle, 0.75L
Score: 100 WA.
“Incorporating a touch more Viognier than normal, the 2014 Syrah Cailloux Vineyard is 93% Syrah and 7% Viognier from the first vineyard planted in the stones region of Walla Walla. Sporting a surprisingly deep, inky color, it offers a heavenly bouquet of black olives, tobacco leaf, smoked meats, pepper, blackcurrant and black cherry notes. Deep, rich and ever changing in the glass, with incredible complexity and layers, this full-bodied masterpiece has building tannin, a stacked mid-palate and a great, great finish. It's pure perfection in Syrah, and the finest vintage of this cuvee ever made. As a bonus, it’s also the largest production Syrah they produce. Bravo!” Wine Advocate #232, Jun 2017
Provenance: The Comète Cellar
Lot Location: Orange County
Estimate: $400
