Airfield Estates 2009 Aviator Red Red (Yakima Valley)

Country: US / Aviator Red
Variety: Bordeaux-style Red Blend Washington
Winery: Airfield Estates / Yakima Valley

Light and balanced, this five grape Bordeaux-style blend does not try to overreach. The fruit is clean and delicate, pale cherry set amidst dried leaves, tobacco, and muted tannins. Plenty of acid keeps it lively, but everything is in focus and proportionate.
