Wine Review: This very dark garnet colored Cabernet Sauvignon from Washington state opens with a leather and mild black cherry bouquet with hints of oak and black tea. On the palate, this wine is medium plus bodied with integrated medium plus acidity. The mouthfeel is balanced, round, and a little mouthwatering. The flavor profile is a medium oak influenced black plum and graphite blend with notes of black cherry and herbal tea. I also detected some hints of loam and a touch black licorice at the very end. The finish is dry, and its flavors, acidity, and moderate dusty tannins stick around for a little while. I would pair this very good value Cabernet with a thick and juicy Angus bacon burger with Swiss cheese and sauteed mushrooms. Enjoy - Ken

Winemaker Notes: This expertly composed Cabernet Sauvignon reveals aromas of Bing cherry, plum and red tea leaf, complemented by subtle nuances of vanilla bean, clove and forest floor. Underlying mineral tones contribute complexity, with hints of brown spice and nutmeg adding layers of depth. The palate is a symphony of pomegranate, plum, tobacco and cedar oil, also boasting polished tannins and concluding with an impressively balanced finish.
