title: Ott & Murphy 2008 Double Bluff Red (Columbia Valley (WA))
description: This is a Rhône-style blend of mostly Grenache and Syrah, with smaller amounts of Viognier and Cinsault. The wine opens with appealing spices, but turns tart and stemmy in the mouth. The spiced plum fruit flavors compete somewhat unsuccessfully with bitter tannins. More bottle age should help.
variety: Rhône-style Red Blend
designation: Double Bluff
