Milbrandt 2009 The Estates Syrah (Wahluke Slope)

Country: US / The Estates
Variety: Syrah Washington
Winery: Milbrandt / Wahluke Slope

As is often the case, the Estates Syrah bottling is the best wine of the flight in this vintage. It shows more varietal character and depth, with a substantial black-cherry flavor. It has lavish notes of maple syrup and baking spices, and the core fruit still shines through.
