Good blend, Wahluke Slope always delivers. Curious to see how this wine will evolve as it breathes. 10/5/18 upped the rating to 90pts, cassis and boysenberry balanced with nice acidity. This is a great blend. — 8 years ago

Fabulous!!! Christmas dinner with prime rib. marionberry fruit and white pepper and a warm spiciness - bit of nutmeg. New world/old world bridge kind of wine. — 9 years ago

Subtly sweet (think prunes) and spicy. Needs some air time (still young), but it sure tastes good once it opens a little. What I like most is a cherry and tobacco sense that keeps lingering long after you swallow. This is yum! — 9 years ago

Wow this is the best rosé I've had this year (gasp!) - sweet fruit nice and crisp and no bite at all. 12.2% alcohol. Drank the whole bottle and found myself inspired. No hangover! — 10 years ago

I love this wine, year after year. Densely extracted, deep purple-red. White pepper, black currant, mint, mushroom (well, Chinese black fungus is better, but not so familiar to most, so close enough) and other herbal notes in nose. White pepper, berry, maybe blackberry flavors, soft mouthfeel, tart seed bitterness, berry in finish. Some skin astringency and white pepper in aftertaste. Love the complexity; flavors are expressive and varietally on point. I’m not sure if further flavor integration with aging is possible, nor if further aging can improve on the current acid-alcohol-tannin balance. But that may just reflect the fact I drink up my wines too quickly to age them sufficiently. After their Jongleur-Petit Verdot, this is my favorite red of theirs. Also note how different the tasting notes are for this vs. a year ago. Is it just me, or are the wine dynamics really changing that much? — 7 years ago

Just silly smooth. Almost like a bold Pinot Noir but a little bolder. Finishes clean, slightly sweet at the end. Delicious right out of the bottle. — 10 years ago

The aromas remind me of a very young modern barolo. Up front in your face tar with secondary aromas of black fruits. BlackBerry, and earthy flavors on the palate. Pnp. Tannins are smooth and drinking well right out of the gates. — 7 years ago

Damn, this 2014 vintage is now my favorite WA state Zin, period! Yes, it's hot (16.9%), but Zin is usually hot. This is packed with big, jammy black fruit that eases into sweet leather and peppery notes. This is freaking great!! — 9 years ago

Amazing what another year does for this. It must have gone through a dumb phase, because it's very well integrated now. Smooth and palate pleasing. — 10 years ago

One of my favorite regions of Washington. Damp cellar , wet tobacco and a peppery finish made me think about this wine. — 11 years ago
