Wine Details
Price:
$29.00 per bottle
Description:
100% Cabernet Franc all from Cougar Hills Estate Vineyard in the heart of Walla Walla Valley of Washington State. Chewy currants and jammy berries, violets, herbs, pepper, and spice create a unique aroma that is so characteristic of Cabernet Franc. Leather, toast, and mature, fine-grained tannins enhance the smooth, balanced mouth feel and long finish. The 2002 growing season was typical for the Northwest. Long, warm days and cool nights gave us a fruit with exceptional maturity of flavors, deep colors, and smooth tannins. Hand harvesting, fermenting in small lots with open top fermenters, and punching down by hand yields wine that is full of fruit flavor, color, and velvety tannins. Barrel aging in a combination of American and European oak allows flavors to marry and adds complexity.
