Seven Hills Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2014

It is time for my #FridayCabernetfix.

Deep purple in color with a wide reddish rim.

Pretty nose with flower notes and chocolates.

Medium plus in body with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with black currants, blueberries, blackberries, tobacco, chocolates, light oak, spices and peppercorn.

Long finish with round tannins and cherries.

This 11 year old Single Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon from Walla Walla Valley is drinking beautifully now. Complex and fruit forward. Elegant and rich. Spicy and entertaining.

Wine Enthusiasts 92 points. Wine Spectator 91 points.

Will continue to age nicely in the next 7 years.

Delicious right out of the bottle, and good by itself as a sipping wine.

14.6% alcohol by volume.

92 points.

I just love their Chardonnay. Good acidity but just so smooth with peach, wet stone, and yellow apple. — 22 days ago

Frog's Leap

Shale and Stone Napa Valley Chardonnay 2020

Pale and lemon with aromas of stone and citrus fruits with yeasty and toasty oak aromas, sat on lees for 6 months. On the palate flavors of crisp apple and peach with citrus zest and nutty oak notes, well balanced with acidity. Medium+ finish ending with fruit, toasty oak and mineral character. Pair with a lane or red snapper with a tomato garlic compote topping. — a month ago

Seven Hills Vineyard Merlot 2014

It is time for some Merlot on this #MerlotThursday. Let's bring Merlot back!

Ruby in color with a wide reddish rim.

Pretty nose and medium plus in body with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with nice complexity.

Showing cherries, currants, plums, dark chocolates, earth, tobacco leaf, herbs and peppercorn.

Long finish with round tannins and tangy raspberries.

This 11 year old Merlot still feels fresh and engaging, with a lot of power to last even longer.

This Single Vineyard Merlot is extracted and fruit forward. The alcohol is nicely integrated by now. Nicely balanced with a nice mouthfeel.

Delicious by itself as a sipping wine, and will pair nicely with food too.

14.7% alcohol by volume.

92 points.
