Long Shadows Vintners
Chester-Kidder Columbia Valley Red Blend
Probably a little less amazeballs than the 2009 that Obama served the French president when he visited the white house, but still fantastic! A rustic sage and anise note are quite interesting as it lingers long after you swallow. Otherwise, the cherry and cola notes from the cab play off the juicy strawberry and leathery/fleshy notes of the Syrah. Damn this is good!

1 person found it helpfulMay 13th, 20192010 vintage, on the cool side so the fruit has some faint green pepper notes, but man, what a big wine! I'd call it pretty much a tannin bomb, actually. Cherry and strawberry combine (the cab and Syrah) with some elegant anise, olive, and bacon fat to really please. I have 1 bottle left and I am putting it away for another 3 years.

Nov 29th, 2014Full bodied and big in every way. Tight tannins, with core of ripe black fruits, blackberries, black plums, cigar box, vanilla, and spice. Still tight but will open up beautifully over the next couple of years.
