Long Shadows Vintners, established in 2003, collaborates with internationally acclaimed winemakers to craft exceptional wines from Washington State's Columbia Valley. The 2017 Sequel Syrah is the result of a partnership with John Duval, former winemaker for Australia's iconic Penfolds Grange, bringing his expertise to the Pacific Northwest.

 

TASTING NOTES: Deep and inky in color, this wine offers inviting aromas and flavors of fresh blueberry, violet, and a hint of cassis. Black olive tapenade and savory spice persist across the mid-palate. Multi-layered and well-structured, the wine's refined texture and enticing viscosity lead to a long, impressive finish.

 

FOOD PAIRINGS: Pairs excellently with grilled lamb, roasted game, or hearty mushroom dishes.
