Acclaim
"It's hard to find a $10 Cabernet with this much muscle and depth. Solid black cherry and cassis fruit anchors a wine with dark streaks of espresso, bitter chocolate and smoke. The tannins are nicely ripened also, and the wine leaves a chocolaty trail as it fades" - Paul Gregutt, August 2010
"Here is a spring bouqet of party-friendly new releases that have tickeled my palate recently including: Washington Hills 2007 Cabernet Sauvignon: black cherry and cassis fruit anchors a wine with dark streaks of espresso, bitter chocolate and smoke." - Paul Gregutt, The Seattle Times, May 15, 2010
tasting notes
Fragrant, dark fruit aromas waft from the glass as the wine opens with intense black currant, ripe cherry, and blackberry flavors. Fine-grained tannins and impeccable balance are followed by a long, oaky finish.
