Sundance Red 2018
91 Pts Vinous
A blend of 58% Merlot with the remainder Cabernet Franc, the 2018 ‘Sundance’ shows off dense cassis, to***co, and creosote tones on the nose. The palate is fresh and viscous with great acidity and ripe dark fruits that mingle with chocolate covered espresso bean tones.
Soleil Red 2018
91 Pts Wine Enthusiast
60% Cab Franc, 33% Merlot, 7% Cab Sauvignon
The aromas offer notes of Rainier cherry, rose hips and fruit leather. The palate brings freshness and polish, with plenty of acidity and firm tannic structure that will benefit from some time in the cellar.
Artist Series 2018
92 Pts Vinous
A blend of 59% Cabernet Franc with 41% Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2018 ‘Artist Series’ shows off heady black tea, black currants and cigar box aromatics. The palate shows off ripe dark fruits, with beautiful texture and verve. Graphite, coffee grounds and anise tones add to the enjoyment.
2017 Terrible Beauty Cabernet Sauvignon (Columbia Valley (WA))
Wine Enthusiast Editors' Choice 93 Pts
Fruit for this 100% Cabernet comes from Elephant Mountain, Klipsun and Weinbau vineyards. The aromas show purity, with notes of violet, dried and fresh herbs, cherry and scorched earth. The plum and cherry flavors are lip-smacking, bringing a lot of acidity and tannin structure. It's beautiful, with a long life ahead of it.
