Lot 101 Columbia Valley Syrah paired with hearty cheeses, roasted nuts and fruit
For
March Madness, watching/celebrating Indiana beat Kentucky, we pulled from the cellar this favorite
Syrah, to sip with a selection of fresh fruit and cheeses, including
eighteen year aged cheddar and Brie with roasted nuts and honey.
I've written several times in these pages about this high QPR (quality-price-ratio) negociant label, 90+ Cellars, Collector's Series, Lot 101, Washington, Columbia Valley Syrah at less than half the
price of some of the vineyard designated Napa Syrahs, maybe one of our
favorite drinking wines in our cellar right now.
We bought out the entire selection at a couple local merchants and continue to be rewarded enjoying this tasty, high quality, high QPR sipper. It is perfect for such occasions.
RM 92 points.

Dark inky garnet/purple colored, full bodied, rich concentrated, this full throttle Syrah reveals layers of blackberry and black currants fruits with tones of sweet vanilla, caramel and spice with hints of black pepper on a lingering smooth silky tannin finish.
