TASTING NOTES:
"Like my mentor told me.
The one with the cars.
This vino is good.
I don't care who you are".
Its like eatin' ribs.
Forget the fork.
Doesn't need words.
Just pull that cork.
THE STORY:
Thankfully our 2005 Reserve won Double Gold (top honors) at the blind-tasted Seattle Wine Awards last spring. This is the most comprehensive blind tasting by professionals in Washington State. The 2006 Reserve is hands-down the best cab we have ever made. It just has more horsepower, more fruit, more balance, more finesse. It is so good it is bewildering to describe.
Thank you Paul and Judy Champoux.
Thank you Gary and Nancy Figgins, Chris Figgins, & Jason Magnaghi.
