title: Kontos 2013 Les Collines Vineyard Syrah (Walla Walla Valley (WA))
description: Coming from one of the state's premier Syrah vineyards, this wine starts out aromatically reserved before blossoming to reveal notes of dark raspberry, dried cranberry, woodspice, vanilla and anise. It shows the warmth of the vintage with concentrated, black-fruit flavors backed by a light squeeze of tannins followed by a lengthy finish. The oak plays prominently but it works.
variety: Syrah
designation: Les Collines Vineyard
