Columbia Winery Columbia Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 750ml

Description

Columbia Valley Cabernet Sauvignon is made to showcase the ripe dark fruit flavors Washington Cabernet can produce in an approachable style. With layers of complexity, this wine has a firm structure and smooth tannins that lead to a broad mouthfeel and soft, juicy finish. Notes of mocha and toffee complement the ripe blackberry and black currant flavors.

Producer Description

For more than 50 years, Columbia Winery has taken a progressive approach to winemaking. Our winery was founded in 1962 by a visionary group of 10 friends, six of whom were University of Washington professors, who realized the potential of growing wine in Washington State, as it has the same latitude as Europe's best winegrowing regions.In 1979, Master of Wine David Lake was named head winemaker and furthered the progressive spirit that began with their founders. Under Lake, Columbia Winery produced the first series of vineyard-designate wines and the first Pinot Gris, Syrah and Cabernet Franc wines in Washington.Today, this innovation continues through a talented and creative winemaking team, led by Winemaker Sean Hails. Using grapes selected from south-facing slopes in top quality regions, the Columbia winemaking team crafts a portfolio of distinct, food-friendly wines with fruit-driven flavors and a firm acidity.
