Wine Details
Price:
$25.00 per bottle
Description:
(A blend of 79% Cabernet Sauvignon and 21% Merlot). The 2001 vintage marked our third
vintage and another in the string of great harvests that have fallen upon Washington. The grapes for this wine came from the Alder Ridge, Boushey and Hedges vineyards. These three vineyards have very distinct profiles and each brings something special to the blending table. These differences allow
us to craft a wine that is representative of both its sources and the vintage. In the glass, you’ll notice the deep red color and the intense bouquet. Aromatically, the wine opens with cassis, blackberry and a trace of earth. With some time in the glass the wine begins to express hints of black cherry, leather and black olives. The long finish is punctuated with roasted coffee, smoke and peat. The wonderful balance between fruit, mouth-feel and structure not only suggests that this wine will be an incredible match with food now, but will age nicely over the next few years.
