The rating for 2014 Reynvaan Family Vineyards Stonessence Syrah Walla Walla Valley AVA is 96+ points from Robert Parker and the tasting note - The 2014 Syrah Stonessence checks in as 100% Syrah that's all from the In The Rocks Vineyard in the rocks region of Walla Walla. Notes of blackberries, blueberries, crushed violets and peppery herbs all emerge from this tight, backward, concentrated Syrah that has thrilling purity. With air, it shows a touch more meat and game, but it desperately needs 2-3 years of cellaring and will keep for a decade or more after that. It’s a killer bottle of wine! The rating for 2015 Reynvaan Family Vineyards Stonessence Syrah Walla Walla Valley AVA is 95 points from Robert Parker and the tasting note - The 2015 Syrah Stonessence is the most inky and brooding of these Syrah cuvées from Reynvaan, exhibiting a deep bouquet of elderberry, crème de cassis, tapenade and candied peel. On the palate, it's full-bodied, deep and layered, with a lavish attack, satiny tannins and a rich core of distinctly savory fruit. The finish is long and saline. Like all these wines, it's low in acidity but manages to find a mouthwatering freshness of its own. The rating for 2013 Reynvaan Family Vineyards Stonessence Syrah Walla Walla Valley AVA is 94+ points from Robert Parker and the tasting note - A touch reductive at first, the 2013 Syrah Stonessence is a meaty, olive, game and mineral (gunpowder?) scented beauty that hits the palate with medium to full-bodied richness, fine, polished tannin and nicely integrated acidity. Made from 100% Syrah and aged in 25% new French oak.
