Winemaker Notes
Aged for 19 months in French and American oak barrels, this exceptional blend of 93% Cabernet Sauvignon, 4% Cabernet Franc and 3% Merlot exhibits rich and concentrated flavors of blackberry, cassis and mint married with aromas of black cherries and vanilla. A big wine worth cellaring for 5 to 10 years minimum.

The story of J. Bookwalter Winery is a story of family heritage, deep roots and a centuries-old commitment to the land. Ten generations of the Bookwalter family have been involved in American agriculture. But it was Jerry Bookwalter, generation nine and father of current company president John Bookwalter, who led the family into viticulture. After graduating from UC-Davis in 1963, Jerry spent 13 years farming in California’s San Joaquin Valley before moving his family in 1976 to the Tri-Cities in Washington State.
Once there, he firmly stamped the Bookwalter name on the state’s nascent wine industry. From 1976 through 1982, Jerry helped manage the plantings of three iconic vineyards – Sagemoor, Bacchus and Dionysus.
