January 2, 2021 - Wonderful balance of rich dark/red fruit with cocoa/tobacco, med+ acid and long finish congruent with nose/palate. Delightful!

December 19, 2019 - Garnet colored, medium full bodied, ripe, bright expressive nicely balanced black berry, black currant and cherry fruits accented by notes of mocha, black tea, tobacco, sweet oak and hints of lavender and pepper finishing with nice smooth soft well integrated tannins.

December 29, 2016 - Classic Walla Walla Cab. Drank from magnum, still youthful showing lovely notes of black currant, blackberry, tobacco and graphite. Blanched with a clean mouthwatering finish.

8/2/2009 (link) ***** points(Abeja Cabernet Sauvignon Columbia Valley) Blueberry and spice on a nose that also reveals cedar and toasted oak. Lots of oak components emerge as the wine opens, including vanilla and rich dark chocolate. Dark berries lie underneath the oak. Thick and rich with a pretty serious bite to the tannins at present. Needs 1-3 years or extended decanting. Throwing lots of sediment. 81% Cabernet; 14% Merlot; 5% Cab Franc.
