Winemaker Notes
Blackberries and raspberries leap out of the glass with undertones of olive and sage. This wine is amazingly soft on the palate, with firm but gentle tannins creating a mouthwatering sensation. Flavors of raspberries continue onto a long savory finish with touches of sage. Roast lamb with a Syrah reduction would be a hard combo to beat with this delicious wine.

Wine Enthusiast
Impressive, full-flavored and smooth, this rich and ripe Syrah offers classic, full-on varietal fl avors. A mix of plush red fruits with generous acidity and streaks of roasted coffee and mocha, the wine just goes and goes.
Editors’ Choice -
Wine Spectator
Lively and juicy, brimming with blueberry, raspberry, sandalwood and red pepper flavors, tasting exotic but focusing on the long, invigorating finish, which has a welcome ripeness and balance. Drink now through 2015. 1,042 cases made.

The Gordon Brothers vineyards were established in 1980. They have planted a total of 95 acres, consisting of 25 acres of Chardonnay, 21 acres of Cabernet Sauvignon, 20 acres of Merlot, 15 acres of Syrah, 14 acres of Sauvignon Blanc, and one acre of Gewurztraminer. The vineyards lie on a perfectly oriented south-facing slope ranging from an elevation of 600 to 682 feet above sea level, on the Snake River just above Ice Harbor Dam and the confluence of the Snake and Columbia Rivers in southeastern Washington. These mature vines are proving that the Gordon Brothers vineyard has a singular, superior micro-climate. Superb air drainage and all the favorable effects of river sites for grape growing are only two of the reasons that these are some of the most sought-after grapes and wines in the Northwest.
