Cayuse "En Chamberlin Vineyard" Walla Walla Valley Syrah 2022

Vinous - Eric Guido : 98 Points

(10/2025) Dark and earthy in the glass, the 2022 Syrah En Chamberlin Vineyard smolders with a beguiling bouquet of undergrowth, wet stones, and black cherries. It's slightly backward today, with stony mineral tones and soothingly round textures hosting a mix of graphite-infused wild berries and sage that swirl throughout. Exceptionally long, structured yet balanced, the 2022 echoes with blue and purple inner florals, leaving a tart sensation on the mouthwatering close. It's harmonious to the core. What a gorgeous wine. Drinking Window: 2028 - 2038.

Jeb Dunnuck : 96 Points

(7/10/2025) The 2022 Syrah En Chamberlin Vineyard has tension and dark fruit character for days, evoking meaty butcher shop in its layers of sanguine bacon fat and petrichor. Spicy and brooding, its tannins are broad-shouldered and long, gripping the palate through the peppery finish. Cellar through 2042.

Wine Spectator : 97 Points

(8/31/2025) Rich and detailed, with compelling flavors of raspberry and huckleberry laced with tapenade, lavender, river stone and black olive as this builds a plush texture on the savory finish. Drink now through 2035. 449 cases made.

James Suckling : 96 Points

(3/7/2025) This has an earthy, savory profile with aromas of smoked bacon, plum skins, charcoal, black peppercorns and stones. Full-bodied and wide on the palate with massive, compact tannins. It’s refined and textured yet finishes tight and firm, lingering with notes of iodine and seashells. From biodynamically grown grapes. Better from 2028.
