Dense, aromatic, layered and rich, this wine explodes from the glass with scents and flavors of concentrated berries, cassis, black cherry, and more. The vines have reached a mature stage that amplifies the fruit and keeps the generous barrel flavors in perfect balance. The barrel notes roll on in a chorus of toasty accents, and the finish is as good in the last minute as the first whiff from the glass.Additional Information

Cabernet SauvignonKing of the 'noble grapes,' Cabernet Sauvignon is used to produce some of the world's greatest wines. It thrives in warm climates like Napa Valley and Bordeaux, where the ripe fruit displays distinctive blackcurrant flavors and often a hint of mint or cedar. Cabernet Sauvignon produces highly tannic but well-rounded wines that are ideal for aging. It is often blended with Shiraz, Merlot and Cabernet Franc, with results ranging from medium-bodied to heavier, full-bodied wines. |

Washington30 years ago, less than a dozen wineries were in the game of making Washington State wines. Today, more than 450 wineries call Washington home. The reason? Vintners have finally discovered the state’s potential for growing fine wine grapes that match (and possibly exceed) the quality of California grapes. The relatively dry climate, extra sunlight hours during the growing season, and long autumn for slow, optimal ripening all mean great things for Washington State wines. See fine examples from wineries like Chateau St. Michelle, Chester Kidder and Canoe Ridge. |
