In its drinking window now. My favorite producer after several trips to Woodinville. Opaque, deep dark red/garnet. Mostly Cab Sav and Syrah with a bit of Verdot, all from the 235 acres Stillwater Creek Vineyard, one of Washington best. Powerful dark red fruit aromatics with spice, no hint of aging at this point. Firm, well-structured with ripe tannins, a delicious mouthful that ends in an extended finish. A great sipping wine and a fine example of the Columbia Valley.

Flawless from start to finish - it’s a fantastic aged Washington can/Syrah blend - I think it’s better than the more famous Ursa

Black bramble and tar nose
Pleasant acidity, dark fruit and pepper, mid-length
Unusual addition of PV to the traditional Cab/Syrah blend is distinctive and very much a personal impact

Really not a good effort. Thin and mild fruit. Avoid this wine for the price point.
