2020 Horsepower Vineyards Sur Echalas Vineyard Syrah Walla Walla

(94 Points) Starting with a savory and spicy nose with notes of potpourri, tar and dusty roses, the 2020 Syrah Sur Echalas Vineyard is bright, fresh and aromatically pleasing. Medium to full-bodied, the wine is dense and chewy on the palate, with umami and savory notes of iodine and leather, hints of black cherry skin and green peppercorns and a slight prickle that will benefit from decanting. The wine continues to uncoil and unfold over the long-lingering and tannic finish. It's a delightful wine that spent 15 months in neutral oak vessels. 4,248 produced. Give it a try. Wine Advocate
