2018 Discovery Cabernet Sauvignon
The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Discovery Vineyard unfolds with alluring juicy plum and black raspberry aromas, complemented by dark cherry, hints of blackberry jus and soft herbal notes within a robust and generously framed profile. This medium to full-bodied wine presents a fresh palate and is succulently ripe, showcasing complexity throughout. The Cabernet concludes with a long, food-friendly finish. It was aged for 36 months in French oak barrels.

This is a complex, bold and layered wine with a dazzling ruby red color and aromas of geranium, sumptuous black fruits with hints of black licorice, vanilla and cedar. The front palate starts out with black currant and dried black plum leading to generous Marion berry, plum and anise, finishing with ripe black cherry, wild blackberries, dark cocoa and a hint of black pepper. It’s full bodied with higher acidity and notable tannins. Winemaker Shane Howard has succeeded once again with this outstanding example of a Washington Cabernet.
