Michelle from Washington State. The focus of this illustrious joint venture was to concentrate on producing a world class Cabernet Sauvignon-based wine from the finest Washington fruit grown in the Red Mountain vineyard, without doubt the wines produced here are indeed world class. The 1997 Col Solare Cabernet Sauvignon benefited from a late September harvest allowing the grapes to slowly develop a full flavour on the vines. ?Plump black stone fruits combine with intense aromas of black currant and blackberry. These dark fruits are prevalent mouth flavors along with rich coffee, mocha, vanilla and tobacco. An elegantly structured wine with great depth and a generous finish.? ?
