GRAMERCY CELLARS LOWER EAST SYRAH

$29.99

Fruit forward and perfumed. Blackberry and marionberry leap out of the glass with some red fruit aromas of ripe Bing cherry in the background. Fresh ground coffee, dark chocolate, black tea, and mixed peppercorns add complexity. A slight tarragon herbal element, most likely coming from the whole cluster. On the palate, it’s all about dark fruit flavors and spiciness. Blackberry, dark chocolate, and black pepper lead with subtle savory, meaty elements on the finish. Plush tannins lead you into a long lingering finish.

91, Wine & Spirits

A blend from multiple vineyards, this is lifted and succulent, with crunchy brightness to its fruit. It’s supple, with an irresistible succulence for steak.

Walla Walla lies in the Lower East corner of Washington State. We created Lower East as a thank you to our customers and industry friends. Our goal was to make a fantastic Syrah at a fantastic price. The 2020 combines the fruit-forward qualities of Yakima Valley Syrah with the freshness and acidity of a few Walla Walla vineyards. It’s fruit-forward, with perfumed florals greeting your senses, immediately followed by mixed peppercorns, tarragon, and meaty elements.
