Exceptional. Nice minerality, perfect amount if tannins. Really well balanced β 8 years ago
A second tier wine from the esteemed Corliss Estates in Walla Walla this wine was suggested by my wine consultant. She said "forget the funky label this stuff is really good." was she right. It has a medium to full body, firm tannins with hints of black berries, cigar box and dark chocolate. On the 4th of July how can I taste anything but a big American red. Happy 4th to all my American friends from BC. Enjoy πΊπΈ β 8 years ago
This is the 2008 Corliss Columbia Valley Cabernet Sauvignon we had on a special occasion with close friends. This is from Walla Walla, Washington made of 100% Cabernet Sauvignon.
On the nose there is black cherry, blackberry, black currant, licorice, smokey campfire, vanilla, leather, black pepper, cocoa and dark earth.
On the palate there is black cherry, blackberry, spice, licorice, leather, violets, coffee, graphite and dark rich earth.
This wine is full bodied and well balanced with a silky smooth mouthfeel medium + to high acidity and medium + fine supple tannins that moves seamlessly into a long dark fruit graphite finish. An outstanding wine at 14 years of age and has many years to continue to develop. Have a great weekend and please stay safe and healthy. Nostrovia! π·π·π·π·π· β 2 years ago

Enjoyed this wine quite a bit. Darker fruits and full bodied. Also had good depth. Minimal oak. Tannins in check. Medium complexity. Minimal decant and mostly just drank out of the bottle over 1 hour. Might evolve more with airtime. β 12 hours ago
