Viento Syrah Cuvee R
Viento
Viento's best Syrah, made from a cuvee of the best Syrah grapes of the vintage available to the winemaker.
Prior vintage notes
Wine Spectator 90 points: "Rich and generous, with a lively balance of just enough acidity to keep the smoky plum and cherry flavors rolling through the long, peppery finish. Drink now through 2010. 150 cases made." (HS)
With so many Washington Syrahs selling for $30 and up, this wine is such a deal!
The Cuvee R is a blend of five Columbia Valley vineyards' fruit. The vintage was very good, Rich knows how to work with Syrah fruit, and the result is another year of great value Syrah. It's a juicy, toasty syrah with delighful but subtle hints of floral viognier in the scent and black cherry fruit flavors. -jy
