Product Description
As in 2010, 2011 was another excellent but slightly unusual vintage in Washington state. The La Nina current again made for cool spring temperatures, which delayed bud break and slowed early season growth. When combined with a warm but not particularly hot summer, veraison was one to two weeks late, which meant Syrah, a mid season ripening variety, came off during a cooler time of year than usual, resulting in expressive fruit. Grapes are from Les Gosses Vineyard, which is in the center of the Red Mountain AVA. This wine was 100% barrel aged for an average of 12 months in 52% new oak and 48% older oak consisting of 31% French, 7% Hungarian and 62% American wood.
