  Nice & lighter than what we typically experience with cabernets. Aroma of vanilla, then flavors of ripe blackberry. Light tannins

  A very solid Cabernet Sauvignon. Rich, layered, and complex, this is a proof that Washington can produce world-class wines.

  This medium ruby, medium-bodied wine was sampled at the winery's Spokane tasting room. A blend of 86% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Petit Verdot and 4% Merlot, it offers aromas of dark plums, chocolate and anise. Fresh, softly tannic and with well-integrated alcohol (13.6%), it delivers flavors which mirror the nose. Unfortunately, it thins a bit in the middle. The resurrected finish adds hints of tobacco and is of medium-length. While certainly enjoyable, this bottling is not up to the level of its 2008 brethren. Drink now-2019.
