Isenhower Cellars Syrah River Beauty

Nose is initially peppery and spicy, which is quickly replaced by loads of black fruit (berries and plums). Full bodied, smooth, and with firm tannins. The palate has the same mix of flavors, although it definitely leans more to the pepper than to the fruit. Really well balanced and a nice expression of Washington Syrah.

Explosion of pepper after a few seconds on palate On third day, still huge pepper and dark tannins
