“As the pinnacle tier for Chateau Ste. Michelle, the Ethos Syrah offers a rich mouthful
of jammy blackberry fruit with layers of complexity and depth. Washington is an ideal growing region for Rhone varietals and we are able to grow different styles of Syrah in Washington. I would classify the Ethos Syrah as an Hermitage style. This is the perfect match for barbeque!”
