Archeus Native Hand 2015 Syrah
A nose of rich red fruit. Flavors of red and black cherry layered with plum sauce, plus hints of vanilla bean, allspice and bacon fat. The wine has a silky mouth-feel and lingers pleasantly on the palate.
100% syrah from Red Heaven vineyard, Red Mountain. Aged in 50% French and 50% American oak for 22 months.
Professional Reviews and Scores
Washington Tasting Room: Editor’s Choice – Excellent (90 pts.)
Velvety and broad, with lavish crushed blackberry, boysenberry and floral violet flavors that meld with distinctive accents of smoky caramel, cocoa, clove and vanilla. Complex, ending with bass notes of sage and cedar along with firm integrated tannins that lend depth to the juicy finish.
