Snipes Mountain

2018 Limited Release Snipes Mountain Syrah

Snipes Mountain became Washington’s 10th official AVA in 2009, but first plantings of vines were as early as 1917. The steep terrain is decorated with boulders and gullies which generate brisk fog in the morning and intense sunshine in the afternoon. This Syrah is rich and concentrated. Enjoy with wild game or barbeque.
