A wonderful tasting put on by Classic Wine Storage featuring Long Shadows Winery. If you aren’t familiar with these wines, they are phenomenal WA state wines that are made by the likes of Randy Dunn, Phillipe Melka, Michel Rolland, John DuVall, and more.

Dominant Sangiovese with some cab and a splash of Syrah. Rich style sangio wine. Sweet oak, dirty cherries, herbs, and a high percentage/bitter dark chocolate. — 8 years ago

Andrew Will wine tasting tonight at the storage facility. My knowledge and experience with WA state wines is small, so this was a great evening to learn and enjoy some very good wines.

Lots of dust and grittiness here. The nose is all fruit but the palate and finish is more savory. This is almost equal parts Merlot and cab franc. No green pepper. This needs a few years to really be properly enjoyed. I liked the potential of this wine more than any of the others. — 9 years ago

More for #wawinemonth! Not the same as other wines by Randy Dunn but solid WA Cab.

Deep ruby red. Layered and slightly aged nose with damp forest floor, baking spices, black cherries and dark red berries. Moderate tannins (7/10) and medium plus body. Definitely needs time to open and has a touch of heat. Complex palate with some bitter dark cocoa, dark fruits, twigs and black cherries. A bit angular but leveled out with time. A touch vegetal with a super long finish. Drink till 2020. — 9 years ago

This 2005 was very impressive. I've been disappointed with 05 Washington wines and their aging. This Betz is the best 05 aged WA wines I've had yet. Does not taste over the hill at all, beautiful — 10 years ago

Great paring with a Spanish themed meal that included tri-tip steak and a fried chick pea salad. Wine was delicious - bold fruit forward and a smooth finish - a fine example of a top tier WA wine. — 8 years ago

Hearty! 13.8 ABV, but tastes "heavier", in a good way. 72% Merlot, 16% Cab Sauv, and some Cab Franc and Petit Verdon - brilliant mix! Chewy, berry, strawberry, stone, leather and all kinds of masculine flavors -brought to you by Carolyn Lakewold. One of the few WA wines I bought, interested to see what they do now that they have dropped the "collaboration" concept. 9.2, and loved it. — 8 years ago

Very cool to see WA producers making Spanish varietals. 90% tempernillo, 10% graciano, this wine tastes like a riserva tempernillo, with a little more structure and heft. Black currants, oak, tannins all pair well with the delicious steak served at Joule. Looking forward to trying more of Pomum's wine! — 10 years ago

Very aromatic. A tad floral...notes of violet and herbs. Purple in color, but mainly black in fruit color...blackberries, currant, black cherries. I preferred the '10 over this '13. But when it comes to two blondes, I have a feeling @Bill Bender doesn't discriminate 😉😂. — 9 years ago

Best WA Cab i can remember having. Complexity all over the place. Old world Bordeaux nose. Perfectly balanced palate. Slate, cinnamon, vanilla, stewed black fruit, tart cherry, tobacco, moderate tannins. So happy with this. All that for around $100. Happiness in a glass(es) on a Friday night — 9 years ago
