2003 Walla Walla Valley Cabernet Sauvignon

Platinum Award! Wine Press Northwest, January 2007

Gold Medal, 2005 Seattle Wine Society

“Outstanding! Tied for the top wine out of 128 Northwest Cabs! Beguiling sweetness in the nose with loganberries, marionberries, pie cherries, leather, gun flint and white pepper. Bold blackberries, juicy black cherries, orange oil and herb spice combine in a long, weighty mouth feel where the tannins build then ease off as acidity takes over with some chocolate on the finish.” Wine Press Northwest, Spring 2006.
