Thank you to the August 2009 issue of the Wine Enthusiast for their lastest review.

89 Dowsett Family 2007 Devotion Red Wine (Columbia Valley); $28.

A Chateauneuf-style, ruby red blend of 52% Syrah 26% Mourvèdre and 22% Grenache. Lots of spice and black pepper to complement the bright red fruits. Still very young and not-quite resolved; the aromatics have a fresh cut lumber smell, though very little new oak was actually used in the wine. Give it some time to knit together, or decant well before drinking.
