About this product
K Vintners Motor City Kitty is one of the Rocks District's most celebrated Syrahs: from old-vine Syrah on the ancient basalt cobblestone terroir of Milton-Freewater's Rocks District. Deep violet with extraordinary savouriness: olive tapenade, smoked meat, violets, graphite, iron mineral, and a concentrated dark fruit that emerges from beneath the mineral intensity. The wine has a Northern Rhône-like structure — not Washington's typical opulence, but a lean, mineral austerity that rewards 15-20 years of aging. Among Washington's most complex and age-worthy Syrahs.

complement
K Vintners Motor City Kitty's tapenade-mineral intensity and smoked meat character achieves a profound match with grilled flat iron steak — the wine's olive savouriness mirrors the tapenade; the steak's char amplifies the wine's smoked meat dimension; bone marrow's fat richness bridges the wine's iron-mineral austerity. A Pacific Northwest Syrah pairing of unexpected Northern Rhône-like intensity.

complement
K Vintners Rocks District Syrah's smoked meat and mineral savouriness achieves a compelling cross-cultural match with merguez-spiced lamb — the wine's Northern Rhône-like character bridges the North African spice tradition; harissa yoghurt's heat is moderated by the wine's mineral freshness; the lamb's richness integrates the wine's iron mineral. A pairing that reveals the Rocks District's affinity with bold, spiced preparations.
