Description

WINEMAKER NOTES:

This stunning vineyard sits on a south-facing, wind-swept slope high above the Columbia River. The vines are planted in soils of flood deposits that are more than 10,000 years old. This complex and elegant wine has focused flavors and silky elegant tannins.

Blend: 95% Merlot, 5% Cabernet Sauvignon

TASTING NOTES:

Blood oranges and black plums duel with seared steak and cedar aromas for aromatic supremacy. The wine's muscular tannins provide a nice structure upon which to hang copious amounts of blackberry and blueberry fruit flavors. The fruit is joined by bits of saline and pepper. I have a new beef jerky pairing.
