Ready to drink, with big vanilla and toasted espresso bean notes in the nose, black cherry, plum, and berry flavors, and nice balance. Good richness, drink now.

"A full-bodied red of deep color. By nose and mouth it shows black and red fruits, sweet spices, vanillin and red plum overtones. The diverse vineyard sites show in a broad range of flavors and a sound structure with depth and length. Shows a slightly firmer structure and brighter acidity than the previous vintage. Cabernet Franc and Merlot add a softness and perfume to the core Cabernet Sauvignon." the winery

Grapes: Sourced from diverse sites throughout the Columbia Valley. As with all our wines, the grapes were hand-picked; harvest weather was ideal. The blend is primarily Cabernet Sauvignon, with smaller portions of Merlot and Cabernet Franc.
