Andrew Will Two Blondes Red 05 received 92 points from Wine Advocate (Parker) 7/08. They said: "The 2005 Two Blondes, located a stone's throw from the Sheridan Vineyard, is a blend of 36% Cabernet Franc, 35% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 29% Merlot. Its personality is remarkably similar to its sister vineyard with expressive red and black fruit aromas, spice box, and smooth-textured, sweet fruit. It is a lengthy, elegant effort for drinking from 2012 to 2025."
Vibrant, concentrated fruity scents of sweet blueberries and black currants. There's a big, delious dollop of raspberry/blueberry cream pie that pulls you in. The forward fruit makes the 05 Two Blondes accessible, while the underlying structure becomes apparent with air. Earth, clove, subtle peppercorn and chocolate notes round out the finish.

2004 TWO BLONDES TASTING NOTES Two Blondes, Chris Camarda's estate vineyard in Yakima Valley, continues to show tremendous promise. The '04 is easily the best bottling so far. Alluring aromas of ripe plums, dark cherries, and smoky bacon float from the glass. Deliciously concentrated, rich, dark fresh and dried cherries, plum and cassis flavors envelope the palate and carry through the finish Like the Sorella, the Two Blondes is lush and luxuriant but with perfectly balancing acidity and great structure. The '04 Two Blondes will cellar well, but you may not be able to wait. 44% Cabernet Franc, 35% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 21% Merlot.
