Description:
They say the happiest vines and grapes spend their life in leaf’s view of water. The beautiful grapes that have found a home in this exquisite wine are no exception. The vines at Smasne Family Vineyards are on the banks of the beautiful high elevation Roza Irrigation Canal. Think of this Vineyard Designate Syrah as Yakima Valley meets the Northern Rhone Valley. This wine enters with copious amounts of dark berries laced with smoked herb; vanilla tinged game and finishes long, luscious and silky.

Varietal Definition
Syrah:
Syrah is the eight hundred pound gorilla of Rhone grapes! In the vineyard and the winery, Syrah is typically an easy grape to work with - healthy, early ripening, resistant to mildew and rot; suitable for winemaking in a variety of styles. The wines from Syrah are tannic without being harsh. The wines will have a taste and smell of dark blue fruit like blackberries and blackcurrant, with a strong spicy side where one can find freshly ground pepper and other spices. Syrah is famous for its part in the French blends, such as Côtes du Rhone and Châteauneuf du Pape.
