Best Buy! A year ago, Katie Nelson took the reins from recently promoted Juan Muñoz-Oca, and her team continues its tradition of producing some of the most nicely priced wines in the country. This latest release of Syrah begins with late-summer blackberries, rosemary, smoked meat and cedar. Its palate stains as it moves through intensely dark fruit, pepper and vanilla, slowing down for a lengthy textured finish. It received a gold medal this fall at the 2019 Great Northwest Invitational Wine Competition, and potential pairings range from pork tenderloin or grilled salmon to soft cheeses.
