2022 Ruckus Syrah Blend
Ruckus v. 2022 is a wild beasty from Red Mountain’s iconic Ciel du Cheval Vineyard. Loaded with rich, dark black fruit and aromas of smokey game, forest floor and mineral, it is replete with flavors of loganberry, black cherry, bay leaf, and sweet oak. Dyn-O-Mite today, it is guaranteed to deliver good times for oodles of years.

FOUNDERS’ NOTES:
Once upon a time there was a Syrah called Stella Mae. As demand for Syrah began to taper off a bit, we decided in our third vintage to align our girls' wines on either side of the Gironde, even though it is nowhere near Woodinville, in the name of family harmony. So, in 2006, we made Ruckus, our Red Mountain Syrah blended with Cabernet Sauvignon.
