Columbia Valley Cabernet Franc 2014

A few of you suggested that I do a Cabernet Franc Wednesday, so I decided to try it for a few weeks, and I'm going to start with a bang...

Dark ruby in color with a purplish rim.

Great nose of blueberries, blackberries, earth, sweet plums, cherries, vanilla, leather, cedar, chocolates, cola, mocha, espresso, leather, peppercorn and spices.

Medium plus in body with medium acidity and long legs.

Dry on the palate with blackberries, black currants, sweet cherries, raisins, vanilla, oak, licorice, spices, chocolates, smoke, peppermint, coffee, beef jerky, earth, cola, peppercorn, leather, tobacco and light vegetables.

Long finish with firm tannins and tangy raspberries.

What a great surprise. This Washington Cabernet Franc is well balanced, complex and interesting with lots of chocolate notes. Not much of the bell pepper notes, that I expected.

Showing a gentle mouthfeel with a nice ending. Delicious!

Wine Enthusiasts 87 Points.

Happy birthday to me! Well, to Mrs Feyereisen as well. Celebrating tonight before heading overseas for 10 days and what a bottle this was. Kosta Browne is always special but this may have been my favorite - cola and cherry notes ride along a finish that sails on for at least a minute. Lucky to have snagged a handful of these last summer. Cheers all! — 8 years ago

North Coast Chardonnay 2015

Tony Cartlidge & Glen Browne began their wine venture in 1980 to build a winery from scratch. Without enough money to buy an estate they decided to source the best farmed grapes and make wine in their garage winery. Aromas of sweet tropical fruits and citrus notes. Flavors of apple, peach and cinnamon spice with lively acidity on well balanced frame. Lingering finish ending with citrus mineral notes. Tremendous value. — 8 years ago

Mariah Vineyard Syrah 2009

A masterful Wallenda balance between fruit, tannin and oak … prominent dark berry fruit without being overly forward. Not big in body, but deep and long on taste. Aging really well. Sold out now, but was $40 when released. — 10 years ago

Kosta Browne

Amber Ridge Vineyard Syrah 2004

Terrific at the open, silky smooth texture and very round and balanced with a nice long finish. Kosta Brown's elegant touch shows in the structure of this big subtly jammy syrah. Too bad there's probably no '04's available but I'm loving this wine. — 11 years ago
