Wine Description
The Cayuse Bionic Frog 2022, crafted by renowned winemaker Christophe Baron, stands as a stellar example of bionic wines from Cayuse Vineyards Walla Walla. This frog wine is a testament to the elegance, balance, and unique terroir of the Columbia Valley. With a striking neon purple-magenta hue and a vibrant pink rim, it earns its nickname as the purple frog wine with every glance.
The wine bursts with aromas of ripe cherries, wild marionberries, and smoky grilled herbs, complemented by savory notes of black olive tapenade and cracked peppercorns. On the palate, this 100% Syrah is full-bodied with a silky and refined texture, melding vibrant black fruit flavors with hints of dried mushrooms, earth, and grilled meat drippings. The balanced acidity and rounded tannins create a harmonious mouthfeel, while subtle touches of umami and minerality enhance its complex layers. A persistent and savory finish leaves an unforgettable impression, making every sip a journey of concentrated flavor and structured elegance.
This bionic frog wine was aged for 18 months in 20% new French oak barrels, allowing the wine to develop its intense character. The grapes were planted, harvested, and fermented with meticulous care, reflecting the unique soil and terroir of Cayuse Winery Walla Walla. This bottle’s story is one of artistry, where every element melded perfectly to create a wine that is both vibrant and smooth.
Critical acclaim for the 2022 vintage highlights its opulent texture, outstanding balance, and ability to evolve over time. Reviewers praise its juicy, spicy, and lively profile, drawing comparisons to legendary Syrah wines from the Rhône Valley. The wine’s harmonious interplay of richness and finesse places it among the finest offerings from Cayuse wines.
