Wine from Washington (Walla Walla)

The Walla Walla Valley region is considerably a remote region of Washington State. Nevertheless, it is popular for its large wineries and exceptional grape and wine production.

Situated within the Columbia Valley region, Walla Walla Valley has at least 1,600 acres of vineyards and 120 wineries. The region has rich history with volcanic and earthquake events that play a huge part on the exceptional growth of grapes. The combination of lava flows and floods that plagued Walla Walla Valley over the years lead to creation of soils rich in mineral deposits, water pot holes and sediments that enable various grapes to thrive.

Grapes did not begin in Walla Walla Valley until the 1850s when immigrants first settled in the region. Thereafter, grape growing has become a prominent aspect of the region. Cabernet Sauvignon is widely planted in Walla Walla Valley. Merlot, Syrah and Chardonnay come in secondary to Cabernet Sauvignon. They are followed by more grape varietals, such as Sangiovese, Grenache, Tempranillo, Pinot Gris and Viognier among many more.

K Vintners The Hidden Syrah 2018

K Vitners The Hidden Syrah is made from 100 percent Syrah.

It is not a secret the magnitude this wine can reach. In this vintage, femininity reigns supreme. Perfume, flowers, cassis. All anchored to sense of place with stone, ancient soil and chanterelles that make this wine a wine of the earth.

 Review:

Kirsch, ripe black cherries, roasted herbs, violets, and orange blossom notes all emerge from the 2018 The Hidden Syrah Northridge Vineyard, which is all Syrah brought up in neutral oak. Rich, full-bodied, and beautifully polished, it packs loads of fruit yet stays light on its feet, with no sensation of heaviness. As with all of these Syrahs from Smith, it's going to benefit from 2-4 years of bottle age.
