Consistently one of the great Syrahs made in Washington State, the 2014 'The Deuce' by Gramercy shows gorgeous layers and ripe, expressive fruit. Sourced from the Forgotten Hills Vineyard as well as the Les Collines Vineyard, this wine underwent 70% whole cluster fermentation and was aged for 18 months in neutral puncheons prior to bottling. This Syrah wine begins with aromatics of lavender, black cherry, creosote, bacon fat and hints of black peppercorn. There are rich flavors of black cherry, black olive, smoke, black tea and orange rind. It continues to impress with its range of flavor and terroir driven character. This Syrah has the makeup to cellar for a decade or more. (Best 2017-2027) - May, 2017 (OB)
