OUR WINES

Here is the ultimate Quiddity vertical Syrah collection.  It is like a hall of fame of Syrahs.  Collectively, they have received some tremendous reviews and great scores.  But, more importantly, they are darn fine wines.  Enjoy our 2019 AUDENTES, 2020 AUDENTES, and 2020 AUDENTES - Block 14 all nestled in an attractive gift box (in winery purchase only, fancy box not available for shipping, sorry).

The 2020 vintage is a classic Mourvedre in all of its edgy, funky, earthy glory.  It is a medium bodied, dry wine with smooth tannins, nice acidity and a lingering finish.  It has flavors of leather, sweet tobacco, roasted game meats, red and black fruit, earth, and just a hint of eucalyptus.

2019 MELIORA is a medium bodied Rhone style red blend, perfect for summer days, lighter foods, or on its own.  It has a clean nose with aromas of red fruits, black tea, minerals and wet gravel.  It has flavors of red fruits, herbs, mineral, tobacco, slate, and white pepper.  MELIORA tastes like a late afternoon in an exotic land, rejuvenating at a small café after a day of exploring hidden alleys, air heavy with the smell of summer, cooled by an occasional breeze.

A lighter bodied, dry red wine that pairs well with wine (and food).  A classic Grenache wine with a clean nose and aromas of eucalyptus and black tea.  Flavors of pepper, anise, with a slightly vanilla finish.  Or, in the words of a high falutin consultant who helped me out a bit "charming and a style that is "cool" right now and perfect for a summer red. This is a light bodied serious red wine.  We need more wines like this."

A lighter bodied, dry red wine that pairs well with food (and wine).  A humdinger of a Grenache with a clean nose and aromas of graphite, black pepper, cherry, strawberry, leather, and licorice.  Flavors of raspberries and dried strawberries, grapefruit, fennel, prune, juniper, and rosemary, with wonderful "not too hard, not too soft" grenache tannins and mouthfeel..  Well balanced with up front fruit notes followed by a wash of acid for a balanced finish.  At bottling time, I was a bit flummoxed by the lighter color and considered blending with a bit of Syrah.  I am glad I chose not to because this is a very grenachy grenache and has beautiful flavors. 

A classic Rhone Style blend of GSM.  A big, dry wine with elegant, round tannins and a nice mouth feel.  Flavors of licorice, pepper, dried strawberries as well as a bit of leather.  Great with food or as a sipper all by itself.

2020 AMORE is a similar to the 2018 vintage and is a Rhone style GSM blend (SMG actually) with 63% Syrah, 21% Mourvedre, and 16% Grenache.  It is another wonderful, layered Rhone blend with flavors of red and purple fruit, dried herbs, black tea, and leather.  Also has a elegant mouthfeel that is like a nice hug for your tongue.

2020 SAPIT is a medium bodied, dry red wine with a nose of green peppercorn, green chilis, and bramble.  It has a smooth and elegant mouth feel to match.  Whereas the 2019 SAPIT had an essence of green flavors such as Hatch Green chilis, the 2020 has those green flavors balanced by brown flavors; bramble and toasted cumin.  Boy howdy!

Our biggest wine.  This is a big, dry red wine that is also well mannered.  A full round mouthfeel with medium tannins and aromas and flavors of red berries, red cherries, tobacco, and green peppercorns.

Our 2020 vintage is another Syrah which sings the praises of its fruit.  The palate is rich, textured, layered, and ripe.  Juicy black fruit, boysenberry, and black cherry.  Hints of eucalyptus, rosemary and herbs.  No overt oak influence and plenty of lingering flavors on the finish.

For the 2020 vintage, I pulled the two best barrels of Syrah and bottled them separately as a "reservy" Syrah, aka Block 14.  For something else new, I did not filter the wine prior to bottling.  The end result is a beautiful example of Washington Syrah.  I hope you agree.  AUDENTES - Block 14 is a big, dry red wine that is nicely textured with fine tannings.  Aromas and palate of boysenberry, allspice, smoked meat, and licorice.
