Clear and dark garnet. Full nose of black cherry with a touch of vanilla. Medium-bodied palate echoes the nose with red apple peel and plum. Moderate (medium minus) tannins on the back palate and finish. Medium acidity. An easy-drinking entry into Columbia Vally Cabernet. Fruit forward, but with the dark fruit of the Pacific Northwestern latitudes. Pair with Tuesday night. Drink now.

Sweet notes, jammy, yet balanced with a slightly dry finish. In search of our new everyday table red, I think this may be it! Seems like it would go well with steak, sweets, as well as multiple cheeses. And certainly drinkable on its own. More testing needed...

No body and no flavor. Not a repeat purchase especially at $13. We did not like it.

Fruity notes with firm tannins notes. Juicey fruit finish with notes of soft tannins.

A very nice, fruity Columbian Valley wine. A little sweet but has a unique taste that I enjoy.
