From the winery: "The crown jewel of Sheridan Vineyard, L'Orange delights the eye with color befitting to a king, royal purple. L'Orange displays a beautifully forward spicy cocoa and cassis bouquet. You'll want to bury your nose in it! The vibrant palate is refined like custom silk, gliding across mouth with supple tannins and a finish that goes on forever. A majestic wine to age and enjoy."


Detailed Info, Previous Vintage Notes, Reviews:

The followup to Sheridan's monster initial offering, this is the 01 "Red". Kevin says it's better than the luscious 00, we're waiting impatiently to taste, and will post tasting notes as soon as we have a chance to try the wine.

Wine Spectator says: "This will be a sizeable operation when all 76 acres of the vineyard near Zillah are producing, but this first effort, from Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, and Merlot vines planted in 1997, marks this label as one to watch. Rich and artistocratic, it is utterly beguiling, with power, grace and marvelous blackberry, currant, blueberry, abd dark chocoalte notes swireling on a beautifully supple frame. Drink now through 2012." H.S.
