This blend of merlot, syrah and cabernet franc over-delivers at the price, a plush, dark plum-scented wine with sweet oak accents. The flavors are cool and fine, the tannins possessing a peppery bite that screams for a charry cut of meat off the grill.
Founded in 1982, Columbia Crest was the very first winery in the famed Horse Heaven Hills AVA in eastern Washington state. Since then, the unwavering passion for crafting wines of outstanding quality has earned more 90+ Point bottles than any other U.S. winery from Wine Spectator. The legacy is built with every harvest, honoring the rich heritage of Washington wine in every bottle.
Aptly named after the highest peak on Mount Rainier, Columbia Crest represents the pinnacle of Washington State wine. From the vineyard to the glass, Columbia Crest wines are an extraordinary expression of craftsmanship, delivering a steadfast promise with each bottle – world-class wines from a world-class wine region.
