  May 5, 2018 - Hommage a DryCab - Washington Wines release; 5/3/2018-5/5/2018 (Various spots in Walla Walla): My favorite of the reds in the tasting. This was lots of darker fruit profile with an almost sweetness to it that was balanced by more of a graphite, chocolate structure. A bit more intense, but also a new release so suspect it could use a few years of bottle age. Interesting wine.

  April 30, 2018 - This savory and medium-bodied Cabernet is drinking fine right now, with a rusticity that should become more polished with time. Cherry red in color with a grainy mouthfeel, this 100% Cabernet has aromas of cranberry, ground coffee, and graphite. Tastes of boysenberry, leather, and baking spices, with a brambly and dry finish showing a decent amount of tannin. 14.7% alcohol. This is a bit backward now, though my guess is another year or two will do this wine some good.

  January 28, 2018 - Much more interesting than your average $75 Cali Cab. Still very young, nice layers of dark fruits, muted tannins. Would buy more.
