Syrah Boom Boom

Former rock band manager Charles Smith is a winemaker and founder of a number of Washington-based brands. He planted his first vines in the Walla Walla Valley AVA in 1999 and released the subsequent 330 cases of Syrah in 2001 under the label K Vintners. Smith makes value-priced, single-variety wines under the Charles Smith label, which are known for their striking black and white labels and proprietary names. Production across the Charles Smith brands is up to 650,000 cases annually, making it one of the largest producers in Washington. While focused on accessibility and affordability, the wines are still critically acclaimed. Charles Smith was named Winemaker of the Year in 2009 by Food and Wine Magazine and in 2010 by Seattle Magazine.

Boom Boom exploded on the wine industry in 2007, and this spicy Syrah has been one of Washington State's signature wines ever since. It's a tribute to Charles' first love lost—a woman nicknamed “Boom Boom”.  It's not surprising that wine drinkers everywhere have fallen in love with it.

Soft, juicy, savory, medium-bodied Shiraz with dark fruit, earthy and meaty notes on the nose; black cherry, blackberry and tobacco notes on the palate.
