K Vintners The Beautiful Syrah 2017 750ml

K Vintners is Charles Smith's winery in Walla Walla, Washington, and you'll see its bottlings under both names. The Beautiful is one of the winery's single-vineyard Syrahs.

The Beautiful comes from the Powerline Vineyard in the Walla Walla Valley. Across vintages it has been Syrah co-fermented with a small share of Viognier, the method made famous in Côte-Rôtie, and the oak regime changes from year to year.

Expect a savory, spice-driven, Northern Rhône-like style, with Asian spice, camphor, black olive and undergrowth.

Against K Vintners Royal City Syrah 2017, The Beautiful costs far less and leans toward the Rhône style; for a savory Walla Walla Syrah at a gentler price, choose The Beautiful.

Decant it for an hour and serve with lamb chops, grilled sausages or mushroom dishes.
