Somm Note

Winemaker Notes

The 2009 Columbia Valley Cabernet Sauvignon is dark violet in color. Aromas of ripe plum, cherry jam, and coconut. The flavors are that of black cherry, chocolate, oak, and olive. The entry is rich, there are light tannins, and a lingering finish.

Blend: 85% Cabernet Sauvignon, 12% Merlot, 3% Petit Verdot

Professional Ratings

    Smoky, with a juicy backbone of blackberry and white pepper, becoming more prominent with each sip. Finishes with polished texture and a refreshing balance of fine tannins.

Washington produces so many exciting wines, and that definitely includes Columbia Valley Cabernet Sauvignon. With over 10,000 acres under vine, Cabernet Sauvignon is now the most widely-grown varietal in the state. Terrific examples hail from sub-appellations like Red Mountain, Wahluke Slope, Horse Heaven Hills and Walla Walla Valley. One of the fascinations of these Columbia Valley Cabs is that they so often seem to have one foot in the New World and one in the Old. Representing the former are characteristics like the ripe, forward fruit that results from long sunny days during the growing season (up to two hours longer than in much of California). Old World similarities include an undeniable brightness from acidity, as well as notes of herbs, graphite and a dusty, sometimes gravelly minerality.

Whether you’re looking for a budget bottle for everyday enjoyment, or a stellar, world-class wine with tremendous aging potential, Columbia Valley Cabernet Sauvignon wines can deliver the goods! Among the many fine options are bottles from Columbia Crest, Chateau Ste. Michelle, L’ecole #41, Quilceda Creek and Leonetti.
