It is time for my #FridayCabernetfix.

Dark ruby in color with a reddish rim.

Nose of black currants, black plums, light vegetables, tobacco leaf, herbs and black pepper.

Full-bodied and elegant with medium acidity and long legs.

Dry on the palate with black plums, cooked cherries, currants, light oak, earth, chocolates, spices, coffee, licorice, tobacco leaf, vegetables and peppercorn.

Long finish with fine grained tannins and tangy raspberries.

This is a delicious Cabernet Sauvignon from Walla Walla Valley, on the Oregon side. Elegant and smooth, with a nice mouthfeel.

Rich, but not extracted. Spicy and entertaining. Balanced and complex.

Robert Parker 94 points. Wine Enthusiast 94 points.

This 6 year old Single Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon is starting to drink nicely now, and will continue to age nicely in the next 10 years. Would be nice to revisit it in 5 years.

A nice sipping wine, that will also pair nicely with BBQ Meats.

100% Cabernet Sauvignon grapes were aged in (48% new) French oak barrels for 21 months.

14.5% alcohol by volume.

Nose - clay pot, honey suckle, ocean. Main flavors - plum, nectarines. Beautiful soft tannins and mouthfeel. A tiny bit of acid to give it some interest. Was billed as a nice alternative to Malbec at one of our local wine shops we trust. This wine slaps. Really like it. — a year ago

Nice finish with limes and light almonds.

Feels like a fruit forward Chablis in style.

Abeja Estate Skysill Estate Chardonnay 2023, Walla Walla Valley, Washington State

Light golden in color.

Elegant nose with lemons, citrus fruits, very little oak notes, herbs, minerals and spices.

Full-bodied and elegant with medium acidity and long legs.

Dry on the palate with yellow apples, spices, citrus, lemons, pears, light wood, sea salt and white pepper.

Long finish with lemons and herbs.

This is a delicious Chardonnay from Walla Walla Valley. Rich and fruit forward, with nice complexity and a soft mouthfeel. Showing good balance and Burgundy in style.

Needs a few years in the bottle to mature properly, but already enjoyable, even by itself. Would continue to age nicely in the next 10 to 15 years.

This Single Vineyard Chardonnay is a great sipping wine, and better when not too cold. Elegant and good by itself or with food.

100% Chardonnay grapes were aged in (20% new) French oak barrels for 9 months. A tiny production of only 1,300 bottles.

14% alcohol by volume.
