Cayuse Vineyards 2022 Syrah – Cailloux Vineyard Walla Walla Red Wine

Experience the Essence of Walla Walla: Cayuse Vineyards 2022 Syrah

Crafted in Washington’s acclaimed Walla Walla Valley within the Columbia Valley AVA, this biodynamic Syrah captures the unique terroir of the Cailloux Vineyard. Celebrated by top critics (scoring 96-98 points for previous vintages), this 2022 release promises an extraordinary journey for the discerning palate.

Uncork aromas reminiscent of a classic Northern Rhône: intense blackberry and dark cherry fruit intertwine with distinctive notes of cracked black pepper, smoked meats, savory herbs, and an intriguing mineral slate character. A hint of Viognier co-fermentation adds alluring floral lift – think violets and lilac.

The palate delivers profound complexity. Expect a medium to full-bodied structure blessed with fine-grained tannins that provide both elegance and grip. Layers of flavor unfold – succulent black fruits, sun-ripened peach nuances, earthy undertones, bone marrow richness, and a persistent savory spice – creating a truly captivating and food-friendly experience. While beautifully expressive now (especially after decanting), this age-worthy Syrah possesses the structure to evolve gracefully for 15+ years in your cellar.
