Washington Wine Report

By Sean Sullivan
(Force Majeure Collaboration Series Cabernet Sauvignon Force Majeure Vineyard Red Mountain) A glass staining wine with pencil lead, black currant, mineral notes, and dark cherries. Wound up tightly at present, it’s a showstopper with a lot of complexity, richness of flavor, chewy tannins, and lively acidity. 100% Cabernet Sauvignon (three separate clones: 8, 169, 191). Aged 20 months in French oak (100% new). 15.3% alcohol. 110 cases produced. Chris Gorman (Gorman Winery) winemaker.

The 2010 Collaboration Series V is maturing nicely but still has some time before reaching a peak. Good cassis, black fruits remain, the tannins are smoothing out but still prevalent, dusty as opposed to silky. Plenty of spice and tobacco and a strong mineral streak in the finish. It has another decade of life in it.

A big, big cabernet that walks right up to, but doesn't go over the line, for concentrated Washington cabernet that's totally in the prime drinking window but in no danger of running out of time soon. The community drink dates shown here (latest: 2022) are way out of wack.

Still drinks pretty young and tight. Tannins could use some softening.
