Washington Wine Report
-
By Sean Sullivan
(Amavi Cellars Cabernet Sauvignon Walla Walla Valley) Dark ruby. Tightly would up initially, this lightly aromatic wine takes some time to uncoil to reveal black cherries, herbal notes, wild blueberries, cassis, and earth. The palate is full of cherry flavors that slowly evolve into a chocolate filled finish with enough tannins to survive a few years in the cellar. A slight dip in the middle is all that holds this wine back. 76% Cabernet Sauvignon, 19% Merlot, 3% Syrah, 2% Cabernet Franc. 52% Pepper Bridge, 30% Seven Hills, 12% Les Collines, 6% Goff vineyards. Aged in French (88%) and American oak (25% new). 14.1% alcohol. 4,991 cases produced. Sample provided by winery.

This wine is drinking very nicely now. Nice dark, long legs. Hints if chocolate made it very nice for a Valentines dinner.
