2017カベルネ・ソーヴィニヨン
Black currants and ripe plum skin mixed with dark spices and sandalwood. Some air adds more black fruit, Bing cherry, blackberries and creme de cassis with a hint of black tea. The palate has volume and structure that stays sweet and energetic, finishing with hints of caramel and spice. Irresistible now but it will easily age for a decade or more.

受賞歴と称賛の声
"An attractive, floral red with crushed blackcurrants, flowers and chocolate. Medium to full body, round tannins and a soft, cashmere-like texture. 95% cabernet sauvignon, 3% merlot and 2% cabernet franc. Drink or hold."

"Blended with 3% Merlot and 2% Cabernet Franc, the 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon Columbia Valley shows a ripe, juicy, dark-fruited core with elegant baking spices and dusty chocolate. Medium to full-bodied, flavors of cherry skin and black raspberry fill the palate along with gripping tannins that make this wine food-friendly. Concluding with a lingering finish, flavors bitter dark chocolate linger on the aftertaste. Keenly priced."
