Winemaker's Columbia Valley Red Blend

Good value for everyday drinking. Slightly smoky marinade on the nose. Cherries and plums. My buddy says chocolate, maybe.

Cab, mer, Syrah CF.

2011 Winemaker's Red from Maryhill. Big full nose of blackberries, spice and leather. Very fruit forward with plums and flowers. Very soft easy to drink.

I’m an East coast Jersey girl hanging on the Pacific Northwest for the week, staying in Olympic National park for the next two days. I’m drinking only local wines and headed to vineyards later this week. I love this wine because of where I am, otherwise I’d just like it. Xo

Dark maroon color of a perfectly ripe Bing cherry. Smells like soapstone, damp sagebrush and lavender candies. Bit of cedar perhaps too. Tastes like Winesap apples covered in black cherry jam and wild fennel fronds. But also Russian black tea which has fruit leaves and flowers in it. It’s dense and hearty. The edges are soft and rounded though. This is a tasty blend of the grapes of Boudreaux grown in the dry river lands of southern WA.

We actually liked this better than the Cab we had earlier this week from Maryhill. All of their wines are really well made.

Very easy to drink! Few tannins, almost zero sweetness; crisp and dry but at no expense to taste!
