2020 Griffin Creek Syrah

2020 Griffin Creek Syrah

For more than two decades we have been working with the Moore family, dedicated stewards growing the highest-quality wines from their Rogue Valley vineyards since 1989. The Rogue Valley is an emerging Oregon region with temperatures similar to France's Bordeaux or Rhône regions.

On  the Nose: Dark garnet with purple colors, the wine opens with vibrant fruit aromas of blackberry and blueberry and barrel notes of roasted hazelnut and leather.

On the Palate: The palate is dry and balances a fresh acidity with French oak spice of star anise and sweet licorice. Tart blackberry, fig and dried blueberries create a strong and lingering flavor that suggests this vintage can be enjoyed now or cellared for future enjoyment.

Food Pairing: Excellent with savory dishes and slightly sweet sauces such as Moroccan lamb stew, bison burgers and dark chocolate desserts.

Peak Drinkability: 2023 - 2030

"Wines made with consideration for the environment, employees and community simply taste better."

Quail Run Vineyards
Rogue Valley AVA

Pioneers of the Oregon wine industry, Don and Traute Moore have been cultivating vines at their Quail Run Vineyards in the Rogue Valley since 1989, growing varietals from all over the world. What they discovered through careful site selection and temperatures similar to France’s Bordeaux or Rhône regions was the ability to grow a “world of wine” in the Rogue Valley as the varietals flourished. Their site is now one of Oregon’s largest and highly regarded vineyards in the industry.

Quail Run Vineyards is LIVE Certified and collaborate closely with universities on multiple experiments to improve grape quality, improve soils and pest management practices.

Shortly after partnering with Quail Run Vineyards to make our first vintage in 1996,
our Griffin Creek Merlot was named “Best Red Wine in Oregon” by Wine Spectator.

Founded in 1983 by Oregon native Jim Bernau with the dream of creating world-class Pinot Noir, Willamette Valley Vineyards has grown from a bold idea into one of the region’s leading wineries, earning the title “One of America’s Great Pinot Noir Producers” from Wine Enthusiast Magazine
