This improved greatly when opened in a 2020 ST Ford Explorer because the office keys were forgotten.

Fruity and bold in a way that’s unusual for Washington.

Claret style from Walla Walla. Expressive, robust and complex. Had the appropriate amount of dark fruit and just enough spice to keep it interesting. Thoroughly enjoyable.

Excellent, both rich and spicy while also fruity. A little high in alcohol on the palate. Definitely would enjoy again.
