Owen Roe Chapel Block Syrah 08 – Wine Spectator 97 Points!!!
“Warm, inviting and impressive for the purity of its plum, blackberry and currant fruit, sailing easily over a bed of fine tannins, finishing silky and seamless, with hints of espresso and violet. This has extraordinary balance and finesse without sacrificing an ounce of power. Drink now through 2016. From Washington. – H.S.
From the Chapel Block of Red Willow Vineyard, just over the hill from the block used to make Owen Roe’s Red Willow Cab.
Super-limited: only 360 cases made.
Intense and mouth-filling. Peppered bacon, black fruits, crushed violets, vanilla bean and five spice stain your tongue while they caress it. Even with its viscous, fleshy nature, the Chapel Block retains freshness and finishes with integrated tannins. – Marcus
