Description
Aromas of fresh blueberries, anise and earth lead to firm and supple tannins on the palate. This red wine blend presents incredible depth, with layered flavors of candied nuts, licorice and dark chocolate that lead to a mocha finish featuring ample, sweet tannins. -Juan Munoz Oca, Winemaker The vineyards of the Horse Heaven Hills are an oasis of lush, vibrant life that dot an arid, windswept corner of eastern Washington. It is on this rustic landscape that some of the most distinctive vineyards in the state struggle to produce grapes; the resulting fruit is astonishingly concentrated with bold, well-balanced varietal characteristics. Accolades WS 90 Supple and spicy, with a plush-textured, dark-hued, blackberry-rich mouthful lingering against creamy oak notes on the long and polished finish. Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah. Drink now through 2017. -Wine Spectator, 90 points
