Red Mountain, Columbia Valley, Oregon/Washington, USA
It is time for my #FridayCabernetfix.
Dark ruby in color with a wide reddish rim.
Nose of black currants, cooked plums, licorice, oak, Indian spices, light earth, herbs, tobacco leaf and chocolates.
Full bodied with medium acidity.
Dry on the palate with plums, currants, cooked cherries, oak, chocolates, light licorice, spices, tobacco leaf, light earth, herbs and black pepper.
Tangy finish with fine grained tannins and tangy raspberries.
This is a delicious Cabernet Sauvignon from Red Mountain in Washington State. Elegant and nicely balanced. Feels like a Left Bank Bordeaux. Spicy and entertaining. Really enjoyed the nose.
This 8 year old Single Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon is drinking beautifully now, with nice complexity and a soft mouthfeel.
Delicious by itself as a sipping wine, and will pair nicely with food too.
100% Cabernet Sauvignon grapes were aged for 22 months in all new oak barrels, 80% American and 20% French. A tiny production of only 1,400 bottles.
14% alcohol by volume.
92 points.
$75.

Sawdust. With sawdust. Black and red fruit. Good food wine for sure. Not by itself necessarily.
