Medium dark color with a reticent nose & a medium dark color & a medium to full body with slight sweetness (? 0.5% residual sugar) & good complexity &a fairly long aftertaste. MUCH improved since last tasted a few years ago.

A real treat from Washington. A 2006! Just rich, well made wine that ages very well. Beautifully developed russet colour. Easy drinking medium body. Dried cranberry, cinnamon.

Plummy. A touch heavy on the EtOH (14%) IMO.

Unlike anything I've had. Not sure what to make of it. Reminiscent of port. Jury still out.
