A good effort crafting a moderate, Yakima Valley Cab. There’s a bit of the herbal stuff here, but it’s done well, balanced and appropriate. The tannins are slightly green but smooth, and there are no bitter edges. Smooth and interesting.

The Artz vineyard is on Red Mountain, one of the hottest sites in Washington, and yet this feels like a cool climate Sauvignon Blanc, with light melon and citrus flavors, alcohol at just 12%, and a bone-dry finish. It’s surprising, but very well done, and certainly a go-to wine for seafood, shellfish (oysters anyone?) or light salads.

This feels like a cool-climate Sauvignon, with light melon and citrus flavors, alcohol at just 12%, and a bone dry finish. This blend of Cabernet and Syrah shows pretty fruit flavors of strawberry and cherry candy, with a bit of cinnamon spice. Light and lively, it’s a style more reminiscent of the sort of wine you might encounter in a carafe in a seaside town in the south of France.

Dark, chewy and varietal, this tough as nails Malbec pulls no punches. It’s got wild cherry and spicy crabapple fruit, earthy tannins, and a thick finish dotted with the pickle barrel highlights of Hungarian oak.
