Cayuse Bionic Frog 2020 is a full-bodied, single-vineyard Syrah red wine from Washington State, USA. Produced since 2000 and boasting a steady stream of 100-point scores since inception, Cayuse Bionic Frog has become one of the US West Coast`s most sought-after reds. Made from biodynamically farmed Syrah fruit from the Coccinelle Vineyard in the Walla Walla Valley, Washington State, this limited-production wine is renowned for its silky texture, depth and meaty, black-fruited complexity. "Dark-fruited, bold and juicy aromas waft from the glass of the 2020 Syrah Bionic Frog with hints of black raspberries, soy, olive and crème de violette. The nose is fresh, floral and packed with notions of roasted herbs and succulent spiced cherries. Medium to full-bodied, the wine is balanced on the palate with savoury flavours, an umami essence and a lingering, firm tannic edge that will remain food friendly for over a decade. The wine rested for a year and a half in about 20% new French oak barrels. 6,336 bottles produced." Wine Advocate, 2023

Darkly alluring and savory, the 2020 Syrah Bionic Frog smolders up from the glass with a burst of wild herbs, tomato leaf, dark earth and black currants. Supremely silky, this soothes with its ripe fruits and sweet inner florals, yet there`s a savory, nearly sultry core. Lavender nuances resonate throughout. It tapers off long and staining, leaving a tinge of juicy acidity to balance, as violet inner florals linger throughout the pleasantly chewy finale. Eric Guido1st August 2023

Biodynamic Wines from Walla Walla

Cayuse was founded in the late 1990s when Frenchman Chirstophe Baron established new plantings in the Pacific Northwest, specifically around Walla Walla in Oregon. A true visionary, Baron turned a rocky patch of farmland into some of America's most prized vineyards. Made with passion with a focus on using biodynamic principles, the wines are full, dense, characterful and food friendly.

The wines are only available directly from the winery via a mailing list that reached capacity many years ago. Quirkiness is part of Cayuse's identity - which is characterised by a combination of striking labels and bizarre wine names - another glass of Bionic Frog Syrah anyone?
