The Scenic Route

2007 Oregon Syrah

Global Wine Co The Scenic Route is a delightful representation of Oregon's vibrant terroir, showcasing the irresistible character of Syrah. This red wine greets the eyes with a deep, garnet hue that hints at its richness. On the palate, it offers a medium-full body with a pleasing balance of acidity that adds a refreshing lift to each sip. The fruit intensity is prominent, highlighting juicy blackberries and ripe plums woven together with subtle hints of spice and earthy undertones. The tannins are firm yet well-integrated, providing structure without overwhelming the fruit. This wine is beautifully dry, making it a versatile companion for various dishes, from grilled meats to hearty pasta. The 2007 vintage has matured gracefully, revealing layers of depth that invite enjoyment both now and for years to come.

With its rugged landscape and cool Pacific climate, Oregon is one of the world's great modern Pinot Noir regions. The Willamette Valley produces an impressive array of styles across its six AVAs, from fragrantly fruity to lush and complex. This is thanks to a range of terroirs that are eerily similar to Burgundy's in France (Oregon even lies on the same latitude). In fact, major Burgundy producers have set up in Oregon to make wine, including Domaine Drouhin and Louis Jadot. And it is not just Pinot Noir found in Oregon. Other benchmark grapes include Pinot Gris, Chardonnay and Riesling; Cabernet, Merlot and Syrah thrive in the southern AVAs.
