Chateau Ste. Michelle 2011 Ethos Reserve Syrah, Columbia Valley, $50
By Great Northwest Wine on July 19, 2014
Two of the prime spots to grow Syrah in Washington state are on the steamy Wahluke Slope and Ste. Michelle’s Cold Creek Vineyard — which overlooks both the Columbia River and the Wahluke Slope. They came together from this oak-lovers Syrah, which features aromas of dark toast, blackberry, candied blueberry and hints of charcuterie. The drink is bold and brawny with a theme of roasted coffee, boysenberry and blueberry. Serve with T-bone topped with blue cheese, lamb or a roast rubbed with rosemary and thyme.
