Washington Wine Report

By Sean Sullivan
(Corliss Estates Red Wine Columbia Valley) Starts out brooding before it unfurls to show rich, complex aromas of dry dark chocolate, a mixture of red and black fruit, herbs, cassis, and abundant barrel notes. The palate is textured, supple, and silky in feel. A layered wine that brings both grace and power. Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot, and Malbec. Aged 30 months in French oak (65% new). 14.9% alcohol. 534 cases produced.

Delicious, intense, balanced on opening. Maintained throughout our meal. A bit too dry for the chocolate pudding, not the wine’s fault. Very ready to enjoy now or in a few years.

On opening, wonderfully delicious. Except for the date, I would have thought it was younger. Great complex exemplar of Washington’s great Red blends, great claret style. Opens well. Delicious with a tomato and meatloaf casserole. I think this one is good for a few more years

Delicious. A little closed at the start but as it warmed up it burst with flavor. Soft tannins and bright fruit. A real treat.

Decanted for an hour+. At first, the wine was showing a lot of VA, but with air, that blew off and dark red berry fruit emerged. The wine just kept getting better the longer it sat in the decanter too. Paired with slow cooker chuck roast and mashed yukons (fantastic). Definitely in a sweet spot now, with stuffing to go another 5-10 years. Drink now - 2028+.
