93 POINTS - "Bright Rainier Cherry, cherry cola and a touch of green underbrush followed by a slight touch of cedar on the nose. As you sip this wine the first thing you will notice is the bright acid, fresh fruit, and balance of structure. With the decomposed shale and clay bottom of this area it gives this wine a great complexity without being to intricate." S. Kleinfeld - Certified Sommelier
