The tasting note for 2017 Cayuse The Lovers Cabernet Sauvignon Syrah Walla Walla Valley AVA is from Robert Parker and the score is 93 - A blend of 87% Cabernet Sauvignon and 13% Syrah, the 2017 The Lovers offers up aromas of blackcurrant and dark plum with tobacco, before revealing subtle graphite and dried herb expressions before hinting at a rumor of black pepper. Medium to full-bodied, the wine opens to a gracefully balanced structure that is framed by succulent tannins, where the wine is made more complex by the sensation of baked earth and cassis flavors across the mid-palate. Lingering long, the wine finishes with elements of black raspberry, savory spices and dusty lavender. 190 cases produced.
