Comments:

Pleasant drinkable wine, mild fruit up front, with a somewhat tart finish. A reliable table wine and a good value.

From the Label:

Columbia Crest Shiraz has the concentrated plum and berry flavors and spicy aromas typical of wines of the same name made "down under". Our Shiraz is a bold new style of our traditional Syrah building on the quality reputation that Washington has earned for this variety.

The "Two Vines" designation is a tribute to the special trellising of our vines. Like all great wines, Columbia Crest's quality begins in the vineyard. This extra effort to position grape clusters for better sun exposure helps produce the ripest grapes, and richer, more flavorful wines.

Cellered and Bottled by Columbia Crest Winery, Patterson, WA, USA www.columbia-crest.com
