The appellation 2020 Cabernet Sauvignon Walla Walla Valley comes from a mix of sites including the estate vineyards of Ferguson and Seven Hills. It's another round, textured, nicely concentrated 2020 with lots of classic crème de cassis and sweet plum fruit as well as leafy herbs, truffle, spice, and loamy earth aromas and flavors. I love its texture, it's balanced, and it has ripe yet present tannins, as well as a great finish.

Expressive and precise, with deep currant, licorice and dark mocha flavors that take on structure toward medium-grained tannins. Drink now through 2030. 1,950 cases made.

The first sniff of this 100% Cabernet Sauvignon brings an energizing mineral wave of wet rock and earthy, ozone-laced petrichor. Then comes a secondary swell of persimmon, Asian pear, dark chocolate and cigar box aromas. Blackberry, black tea and orange citrus flavors are backed by grippy tannins.
