2021 Horse Heaven Hills Cabernet Sauvignon
Sourced from the rugged slopes of Washington, our Horse Heaven Hills Cabernet Sauvignon opens with spice-driven aromas of cinnamon, nutmeg, and vanilla. On the palate, saturated flavors of juicy black cherry and black currant are integrated with notes of bay leaf and dark chocolate. A silky mouthfeel, vibrant acidity, and strong structure lead to a luxurious dry finish.

A cool spring followed by a record shattering heat
event in late June led to a small but strong 2021
vintage. Cooler temperatures in September and
October allowed for grapes to hang longer on the
vine. Flavor maturity was achieved before sugar
ripeness, elevating the wine’s natural acidity. After
the grapes were harvested, sorted and fermented,
the wine was then aged in 15% new French and
15% new American oak until bottling.
This full-bodied Cabernet Sauvignon is a perfect
pairing for soft truffle brie, a savory mushroom
tart, moussaka, rosemary braised lamb shanks, or
a slow cooker beef stew.
