Simply captivating on the nose, with deep blackberry, smoked bacon, leafy herbs, lavender, and loamy earth, the 2007 Waters Syrah Forgotten Hills is medium to full bodied on the palate and beautifully put together, showing the wilder side of Syrah. Balanced, with good acidity, a focused, energetic texture, and a mineral-laced finish, this fantastic Washington State Syrah should evolve for 2-3 years, and drink well for a decade or longer.

Bright ruby-red. Sexy nose melds dark berries, smoked meat and crushed rock. Juicy, rich and sweet if youthfully imploded, with terrific freshness and creamy depth to its dark berry, flint and game flavors. At once generous and sharply delineated. Very concentrated and classic syrah, finishing long and rich, with thoroughly buffered ripe tannins. Wonderfully rich and expressive for syrah with just 13.8% alcohol.
