2005 Cold Creek Syrah | Chateau Ste. Michelle Washington Wine



2004 cold creek syrah






Tasting Notes "The Syrah from Cold Creek is my most decadent Syrah, offering meaty flavors of dark chocolate and brambleberry with hints of vanilla and caramel. The wine exhibits a full, rich and chewy midpalate with a long, savory finish. My classic food pairing is lamb, but it works well with almost any hearty fare!" -Bob Bertheau, Head Winemaker Current Vintage Fact Sheet, Acclaim, and Past Vintages Find Our Washington Wines The Vineyards Planted in 1973, the south-facing Cold Creek Vineyard is a warm, dry site with high heat accumulation. The low yielding vines produce small clusters and small berries, resulting in intense varietal flavors and deep color. The site’s weak, loamy sand and gravel soils with lowwater holding capacity produce moderate crops and concentrated grapes. Cold Creek typically is one of the earliest vineyards in the region to ripen. Explore More Wine Our Wines Cold Creek Wines Washington Syrah
