Smokey Joes Syrah

100% Syrah from Naches Heights. This 2021 syrah is an excellent flavor rich example of how a specific vintage can shape the character of a finished wine. Naches Heights battled forest fires this year and as a result there is a pleasing hint of alder and hickory atop the usual raspberry acidity and blackberry pie flavor profile. We hope this piece of wine history inspires and treats you well as you share with your friends & family.

Tasting Notes
100% Syrah from Naches Heights. Bits of chocolate brownie, coffee, blackberry pie and vanilla bean dance in the glass with a mouthwatering acidity making for a perfect balance of fruit and licking the inside of a Traeger Smoker.
Vineyard Notes
The Strand Vineyard sits up in Naches Heights at 1900 ft in elevation. This is likely some of the highest elevation Syrah you will experience in Washington State. It shows through in the complexity of flavor and natural acidity.
