Quantity

From the winery: "The 2002 vintage was a concentrated vintage and this is a big wine. The wine starts a bit shy but opens with time in the glass with a savory nose dominated by bay leaf, rosemary, ripe blueberries, and fresh roasted coffee. A warm, weighty attack is full of blackberry, black plum, grilled meats, dark chocolate, and mocha notes. A high glycerin, almost creamy, mid-palette unfolds to a lingering, sexy cocoa, port-like finish."


Detailed Info, Previous Vintage Notes, Reviews:

From the winery: "The Jack Jones Vineyard lies on the valley floor along side the Columbia River as it passes by Mattawa and the Wahluke Slope. The soil is very gravely and has trouble holding water. The flavors from the Jones and other vineyards from the Wahluke are rich and intense. The Syrah from the Wahluke often shows lots of spice and mineral from the gravely soil, similar in this way to the wines from the Rhone region of France."
