Hailing from the Walla Walla Valley, the 2010 vintage of Cayuse Vineyards’ Syrah Bionic Frog is an extraordinary testament to the power of terroir. This wine is a symphony of flavors, from dark, ripe blackberries and plums, to intriguing hints of smoked meat and crushed rock, all underpinned by a peppery spice that lingers on the palate. The complexity and depth of this Syrah are truly remarkable, earning it a flawless score of 100 points. This is not just a wine, it’s an experience, best savored slowly, perhaps alongside a hearty beef stew on a chilly evening. While it commands a premium, its quality and rarity justify the investment, truly delivering well beyond its peers. This is a wine that would make an exceptional addition to any serious collector’s cellar.
