A Bordeaux blend with a whiff of Rhone? Taste it and you will understand. The marvelous backbone of this wine is provided by Cabernet Sauvignon from 2 Columbia Valley vineyards. The Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Syrah build the complexity and round out the palate with fruit and earth. Aromas of dark fruit, coffee and oak offer an inviting welcome to your senses. Front palate shows blackberries and cherries, generous tannins and firm acid. Give this a little swirl in the glass to open it up and enjoy this versatile wine with red meat or even a cedar planked salmon.
