The purple-colored 2008 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve proffers scents of cedar, spice box, leather, violets, and assorted black fruits. Savory, ripe, and well-balanced on the palate, it has ample fruit and enough structure to provide enjoyment through 2018 if not longer. The 2008 Merlot Reserve could not be recommended.Canoe Ridge was a once thriving brand under the stewardship of the now defunct Chalone Group. After the sale, it seems to have been neglected, and when I visited in 2006 it more closely resembled a mausoleum than a working winery. It is now under the Precept Brand umbrella and hopefully things will improve.Tel. (509) 527-0885; www.canoeridgevineyard.com
