K Vintners Royal City Syrah 2017 750ml

K Vintners is Charles Smith's winery in Walla Walla, Washington, and Royal City is its single-vineyard Syrah from the Stoneridge Vineyard near Royal City, farmed by the Davis family. The 2017 carries the Columbia Valley appellation.

Stoneridge's soils are sandy loam, cobble and Quincy fine sand over caliche and basalt. Royal City is traditionally made with whole clusters and given long aging in French oak. 2017 brought a cool, rainy spring and a moderate summer with long hang time.

Expect dark berry, tar, black pepper and stone. It's one of Washington's iconic Syrahs.

Against K Vintners The Beautiful Syrah 2017, Royal City is the winery's flagship single-vineyard Syrah; for a Washington Syrah to mark an occasion, choose Royal City.

It's ready to open now. Decant it for an hour or two and serve with braised short ribs, venison or hard cheeses.
