Long Shadows, "Pirouette" Proprietary Red Blend 2018
USA, Washington, Columbia Valley
Winemaker's Notes:
The 2018 Pirouette is an expressive wine that opens slowly to reveal oak spice and a kaleidoscope of red and black fruit aromas and flavors that become more vivid as the wine develops in the glass. Textured and richly concentrated on the palate, the wine’s voluptuous mouthfeel and refined tannins stretch across a long, satisfying finish.
Substance by Charles Smith Cabernet Sauvignon 2019
USA, Washington, Columbia Valley
Winemaker's Notes:
Classic from the get-go. Black cassis, pipe tobacco and black cherry saturates the mouth. Followed by forest floor, dark plum and pencil lead. Great density and a tremendous finesse-filled finish which one has to repeat...A CLASSIC!
AR Guentota, "Old Vine" Malbec 2017
Argentina, Mendoza
Winemaker's Notes:
Deep ruby red with violet tones. Intense and complex bouquet with red and black fruit notes (blueberry, blackberry, etc.). Well balanced, elegant and persistent aftertaste.
DeLille Cellars, "D2" Proprietary Red Blend 2019
USA, Washington, Columbia Valley
Winemaker's Notes:
The 2019 D2 aromas dance effortlessly between savory and dried fruit characteristics. Cranberries, roasted coffee beans, cassis and burnt orange are highlighted by deep, rich barrel tones of nutmeg, vanilla bean, dark chocolate and clove. As the wine develops in the glass, the fruit profile shifts between red and dark fruits, a trademark of D2 that we love. An inviting freshness and pronounced herbal quality on the palate leads to a structure that is refined. A blend of 13 iconic vineyards throughout the Columbia Valley.
Substance, "Charles Smith" Cabernet Sauvignon 2018
USA, Washington, Columbia Valley
Winemaker's Notes:
This wine is full, rich and very complex. Black currant, pencil lead, warm earth permeates the nose as well as the palate of this compelling wine. Pure and uncompromised, 100% Cabernet.
