Fresh and compelling nose of dark fruit and soy, with background notes of coffee and purple flowers. Wonderfully plush mouthfeel, and the fruit here is so bright and fresh: loads of cranberries and pomegranate along with cedar notes. Long, mouthwatering finish of cinnamon and red fruit.
I picked this up after reading about it at Washington Wine Report, and I was not disappointed. This delicious blend of 35% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Syrah, 25% Merlot, and 15% Cabernet Franc is mostly estate fruit, with a dash of Pepper Bridge Syrah added to the mix.

This site is dedicated (mostly) to the wines of Washington state. Hi. I'm Paul Zitarelli. That's me in the picture. I'm the one that's neither female (my wife Kelli) nor feline (our cat Smoke Bomb)...
