9/6/2019 - The Drunken Cyclist Likes this wine: 90 pointsRetail $32. This is not only the first wine that I have tried from the Snipes Mountain AVA, but I believe it is also the first from the broader Prosser, Washington area. Bright red berry fruit emanates from the fairly translucent wine along with vanilla and even clove. The palate is luscious, coating the mouth with great fruit and acidity. Quite tasty, a wonderful introduction to the region. Should all the wines be this impressive, I might need to hop on a plane. Very Good to Excellent. 89-91 Points. |

6/24/2022 - Notebook Girl Likes this wine: NRThis wine paired perfectly with steamed artichoke and seasoned pork chops! It’s off-dry and balanced out well without overpowering anything. Will visit Gordon at his Farmer’s Market stand and purchase this again. |

2/27/2022 - Redsquare82 Likes this wine: 91 pointsExcellent, full bodied Cabernet. Smell the fruits from the glass when it's 2 feet away. Lots of dark fruits, cassis, plums, boysenberry. Some layers, tobacco, leather. Tannins are strong but balanced. Medium finish. One of the best Cab's from WA for your money. |

12/22/2018 - SpinnerDan Likes this wine: 89 pointsI’m definitely pleased with this wine. I remember when we tasted it at the winery it was tight and I hoped it would soften. I has softened indeed. The nose is somewhat muted but I picked up rose and black cherry. It’s color is ruby with a little earthy brown (picture a dried plumb). The tannins have broken down to a smooth richness that coats the tongue with vanilla and fruit leather. If this is in your cellar, I’d say drink it within the next 12 months as I think the structure is at is peak. |

11/13/2016 - ringsize42 Likes this wine: 91 pointsBold and awesome. Fruit followed by smooth cedar and cigar box notes. Even better on day two. This wine benefits from decanting, or opening a few hours before drinking. |
