John Bookwalter Winery
Conflict Conner-Lee Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon Blend
Columbia Valley, Oregon/Washington, USA
The ‘Conflict’ is a melange of 50% Cabernet Sauvignon with 48% Merlot and a dash of Malbec. Ripe red fruits dance with shades of anise and herbal undertones that take form in the glass. The palate has good freshness and minerality with medium-bodied red and dark fruit flavors, with a touch of milk chocolate. Drink 2019-2029- 91

Dec 4th, 2019Really good wine. Was savory and meaty with a solid tannic backbone and some sweet fruit on day 1. Day 2 it was more traditional Cabernet with fruit and spice but without as much of the meaty component.

JB is a fruit bomb. Not my style, but I could see it going well with paninis or 'za. Caymus drinkers will enjoy.

Oct 28th, 2017Nice nose and flavors of vanilla, currant, minerals. Lighter mouthfeel than expected, but came from a merlot strong in tannins. Good with homemade chicken pot pie.
