點擊次數：3484

The 2007 Cabernet Sauvignon (blended with 5% Cabernet Franc and 2.5% Malbec) was aged in 65% new French and American oak for 16 months. Purple-colored, it surrenders a captivating nose of pain grille, mineral, smoke, incense, black currant, and blackberry. On the palate it has excellent volume, some elegance despite its size, and enough structure to evolve for 2-3 years. This outstanding value in Cabernet Sauvignon should provide prime drinking through 2022. Dusted Valley Vintners began operations in Walla Walla in 2003 and has just opened a tasting room in Woodinville. All of their wines are now bottled in Stelvin screw caps. The current collection, tasted in Woodinville, is uniformly excellent and fairly priced www.dustedvalley.com

An outstanding value, this Walla Walla Valley Cab is awash in black fruits and black flavors—toast, coffee, smoke, licorice, graphite, and black olive. Tannins are silky and the length suggests a wine that will age gracefully.——P.G.(5/1/2010)—— 92
