Winemaker’s Select

2013 Super Yakima

We’re happy to present to you our first vintage of Super Yakima. Our Yakima Valley-AVA Sangiovese, Malbec and Merlot is our take on a Super Tuscan. From start to finish, this wine has undergone “royal” treatment. These grapes were carefully handpicked from our vineyard, aged in our highest quality French Oak barrels and bottled with top-of-the-line glass and natural cork.

Winemaker’s Notes:
The color is an enthralling medium ruby with garnet edges. The bouquet is rustic with aromas of warm-berry jams. Fresh-picked cherries and hints of hazelnut and coconut entice you for another taste. The medium body is complex with satiny acidity and mellow tannins. The velvety finish lingers with hints of elegant oak. All-around, this is a delightfully fruit-forward blend that takes you for a ride along its ever-changing palate. This wine will please you whether drinking it by itself or paired with a light beef dish.

2013 Cabernet Franc

The color is dark and inky with a slight garnet color around the edges. In the aroma and on the palate you will find an abundance of ripe fruit flavors such as blackberry, plum, boysenberry, and blueberry pie. Beneath the layers of fruit some nice oak tones give the wine more depth and complexity while mixing with an earthy component that should make this wine age very well. This wine is rich and bold, yet retains balance and complexity.

2013 Malbec

The color is inky purple and the aroma is brimming with dark ripe fruits. You will find elements of dark chocolate, cherries, violet, blueberry, plum, a little dried herb, cola and spice. All those wonderful fruit aromas mingle with a nice oak undertone adding a pleasant earthiness to the wine. The flavors explode on your palate, big lush cherry and mocha up front and nice tannins on the finish. The wine has great structure and enough acid to really clean your palate. This is a deep full bodied multi-faceted wine with a lingering finish.
