Description:
Excellent conditions in Walla Walla ripened this stellar example of Walla Walla Valley Syrah. Suave and rich, the fruit rises from the glass abundantly. Co-fermented with Viognier in the spirit of Côte-Rôtie, this blend respects the traditional encepagement as the white grapes bring elegance and complexity to the Syrah. Spices, orange rind, red and black berries fill the aroma and repeat the flavor, along with cocoa and vanilla. Glen Fiona's benchmarks wines are made from the Walla Walla Valley fruit, and they continue to be the winery's finest offerings in its range of appellation-based Syrah. An aged-worthy, finely structured wine, the 2001 Glen Fiona Walla Walla Valley Syrah if fully capable of reaching its peak between 2007 and 2009. If you cannot wait, it shows well now and will be a pleasant and perfect accompaniment to peppercorn steak, grilled red meat, salmon, lamb chops or hearty stews.
