Don’t miss your chance to get the 2021 Saviah Waterstone Vineyard Walla Walla Syrah. Just 100 cases produced!
This is the real deal, cool-climate Syrah made by a legendary producer in Walla Walla, Richard Funk. Founded in 2000, Saviah Cellars has twice been named one of the top 100 wineries in the world by Wine & Spirits magazine. We are delighted to welcome them to our Insider Deals!
And this wine itself has quite a pedigree with a long history of high scores, including 96 points from International Wine Review and 93 from Wine Advocate on the 2020 vintage. The 2021, which is still just a baby, has not yet been sent out for outside review, but we put it at 93 points for now, with the strong potential to get to 94 points with a little age. The winery puts the drinking window on this wine from 2026 to 2046, so it’s just getting started!
Of course, this pedigree brings with it a high price tag, as this wine normally sells for $60 a bottle. Not so today…

From the winery:
2021 Saviah Waterstone Vineyard Walla Walla Syrah
Appellation: Walla Walla Valley, The Rocks District of Milton-Freewater
Vineyard: Waterstone Estate VineyardFermentation: Handpicked and hand sorted into 1.5 and 2 ton open top stainless steel fermenters. One-third whole cluster with two-thirds destemmed fruit. The cap was punched down three times per day by hand. After pressing the must, the young wine was transferred to 500-liter puncheons to complete fermentation.
Aging: 17 months in neutral French oak puncheons.
Tasting Notes: What a treat! A small lot wine that we’ve bottled aged to perfection. The Waterstone Estate Syrah showcases the unique characteristics of this block of grapes grown on a fan trellis (the plants literally are shaped like a handheld fan) in the heart of The Rocks District. The wine is deeply colored in the glass, with heady aromas of marionberries, plum, cured meats, cracked peppercorn, and smoked sea salt. On the palate the wine is rich and concentrated. Flavors are savory with dark fruit, cocoa nibs, olive brine with hints of sweet herbs, and wet stone. The finely textured tannins are structured and firm, suggesting both immediate pleasure and aging potential. A classic Rocks District Syrah!

And now on to our review:
The 2021 Saviah Waterstone Vineyard Walla Walla Syrah is classic cool climate Syrah on the nose, which is a very good thing! Aromas of plum, blackberry, smoked meat, olives, black pepper, some herbal notes, a bit of salty minerality and much more reveal themselves as the wine has time to breathe. This is serious stuff and it’s a wonderful, complex start.
Taking a sip shows a rich, smooth and savory Syrah with all those same notes as the nose. It features soft yet firm tannins along with plenty of structure and lots of ability to age. In fact, this one is just a baby (and delicious already)!
It ends dry and savory on the very long finish and was just as good on day 2. We’ll put this at the high end of our 9 Taste Rating at 93 points for now, but I do think it will hit 94 points in a couple more years. It’s another great splurge for your Thanksgiving table.
Cheers,
Jon

“By the way, you guys have a great company – smart concept, well executed. I may never have to make another trek to the wine store again. And your customer service is pretty darn good. Thank you. ”
“I am very much enjoying the wines I have been getting from you. I have discontinued all other wine services as the quality of the wines you select seem superior to what I was receiving elsewhere.”
“That’s tremendous…I wish I had tripled my order.”
“I’ve bought a ridiculous amount of wine from your deals in the last year…I just want to say that I really appreciate what you guys have done with RWS. I discovered your site looking up Costco wine reviews and have been hooked on your insider deals ever since. I’ve been referring every friend I know.”
“I recently took advantage of your offer. So glad I did, and now sorry I did not buy more (like all those quotes on your website!)”
