Medium crimson. Fruit forward plum and ripe, fresh fig, cherry cola, and a hint of vanilla bean but otherwise no overt oak. Medium body, smooth texture, medium acid lends tartness, low astringency, high alcohol 13.5% warms the palate and throat. Good fireside/après ski wine. Muted fruit on the medium finish, tart cranberry, hint of cocoa powder, mushroom, a noted bitterness. Alcohol lingers beyond the fruit. Interesting www.scorevolution.com

Really nice. Not overpowering tannins, lots of fruit notes. Great fruit-forward wine from Washington. Delish!
