Finally cracking this open. Got it as a Christmas gift from my boss. Really good! It’s going very well with the homemade tofu katsu 🙂 — 3 years ago

It is time for my #FridayCabernetfix.
Inky in color with a short purple rim.
Full bodied and smooth with medium acidity.
Dry on the palate and elegant, with nice complexity and mouthfeel.
Showing blackberries, black currants, cooked cherries, cedar, licorice, vanilla, spices, chocolates, light tobacco, peppercorn, light earth, graphite and herbs.
Long finish with fine grained tannins and tangy cherries.
This Cabernet Franc from Yakima Valley is already drinking very nicely. Rich and fruit forward. Nicely balanced with a soft mouthfeel.
This 6 year old is good right out of the bottle, and better after 2 hours of airtime. Will continue to age nicely in the next 10 years.
A good sipping wine, and will pair nicely with BBQ Meats too.
14.1% alcohol by volume.
92 points.

Minerally and dry, but with hints of citrus and a lovely clean finish. Sent as a gift from my boss, and delicious. Stored well in the fridge too. — 3 years ago
Last time i took out the purple cowboy was a lot different but it was great to enjoy this one and not need a new sofa. — a year ago

Just a sample from a very friendly store in Leavenworth. But it was very smooth and not at all juicy. A session red! — 5 years ago

There’s nothing like the excitement of head to head competition. Unfortunately, that excitement ends quickly when one of the participants has to withdraw. The 2013 was extremely advanced with a heavy petrol nose. The 2014 on the other hand was a great example of what this wine should be. A clean nose of grapefruit and grass but not in that overbearing way that can be the case with SB. Once in the mouth SB steps aside and the Semillon becomes the “boss”. Apricot and pears pop up and the initial dose of mouth watering acidity gives way to a wonderful roundness that allows for a long finish. — 19 days ago
