Style: Red Wine

Origin: Washington
Region: Walla Walla Valley
90(+?) Points | International Wine Cellar , November/December 2011
(a Bordeaux blend based on 60% cabernet sauvignon): Good full, deep red. Aromas of raspberry and sandalwood. Sweet, fat and full, but with a firm mineral spine and plenty of sweet tannins giving shape and lift to this velvety blend. The slightly tough, medicinal finish really calls for patience. (My first sample was quite reduced and ungiving, but this bottle has the stuffing to reward aging.)
