2019リザーブ・キュヴェ
“Blue fruit aromatics (blueberry, huckleberry) combine with secondary aromas of allspice, bramble, mesquite and dried flowers. On the palate, blue fruits turn to darker expressions of marionberry pie, black cherry and plum. These dark fruit flavors mingle nicely with dark chocolate, baking spice, fresh earth and pipe tobacco, adding complexity and nuance to the medium bodied and well-structured palate on this wine.

受賞歴と称賛の声
"More Merlot-dominated, the 2019 Reserve Cuvee has brilliant aromatics of cassis, spicy oak, white flowers, new leather, and chalky minerality. Reminding me of a great Saint-Emilion, it's medium to full-bodied, has remarkable purity, perfectly integrated oak, and a great finish. It's up there with some of the finest Merlots I've tasted from Washington State, and I'd certainly be happy to drink a bottle."
