Ash Hollow 2005 Cabernet Sauvignon (Walla Walla Valley (WA))

Country: US /
Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon Washington
Winery: Ash Hollow / Walla Walla Valley (WA)

This is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, all estate grown. Winemaker Steve Clifton handles the high (over 15%) alcohol well, and the wine feels full and balanced, but not fat or tiring. The fruit is a pleasant mix of raspberry, cherry and currant; with bright acids and firm tannins to back it up.
