Wine Review: This food friendly Cabernet Sauvignon based red from Washington state is a translucent medium ruby color, with aromas of red currant, blackberry, shoe leather, nutmeg, and fresh floral notes. Medium-plus body and medium-plus acidity on the palate, it's fresh, balanced, and quite smooth. There are flavors of blackberry, black cherry, lightly toasted oak, and black tea, with notes of strawberry, vanilla, and baking spice. Fine grained tannins in the dry finish pleasantly drifts away. Enjoy with grilled marinated steak tips. - Mark
Winemaker Notes: This vintage features rich aromas of blackberry, black currant, and plum, with hints of floral black tea. It reveals deeper notes of black fruit and fig, complemented by baking spice. On the palate, it delivers a full-bodied experience with sweet tannins and a mix of red and black fruit, culminating in a vibrant finish with a hint of raspberry ganache.
