Col Solare
Red Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon
Red Mountain, Columbia Valley, Oregon/Washington, USA
Blend of 95% Cabernet Sauvignon with 5% Cabernet Franc, deep Ruby color with aromas of rich dark berry fruit, floral and complex spice, aged for 22 months in 100% new French oak. On the palate flavors of blackberry and blueberry with floral spice, vanilla, integrated spicy oak, tobacco and earthy cinnamon. Fine soft dusty tannins, long finish ending with fruit, spice, vanilla oak and earthy notes, starting to drink now but some time will benefit, 3000 cases! A nice fillet mignon with mushroom gravy will go well.

Dark and jammy but not overpowering on the palate; almost medium-full bodied. Quite delicious 🍷

‘14 marked the 20th vintage for this joint venture between Antinori and Ch. Ste. Michelle (which is one of the more underrated producers in the US IMO).
Elegant bouquet of black currant, blueberry, cedar, nutmeg, dried leaves, and subtle black pepper. The palate is rich and deep yet lively. Beautiful round acidity. Supple tannins. Light mineral notes on the lingering finish.

Holy cow, this is an exceptional wine. Inky color with hints of rust and electric pink in the rim. Soft aroma of raspberry tart, strawberry jam, red cherry, red currant, tobacco, & subtle violet. Pure silk on the palate, with a velvety grip on the finish. Notes of stewed plum, jammy red fruit, chocolate, subtle baking spice, and purple candy. Absolutely beautiful wine. Lovely to sip, but big enough to stand up to a hearty protein. Thank you, Ashley!
