Eight Bells 2013 David’s Block Red Willow Vineyard Red (Yakima Valley)

Country: US / David’s Block Red Willow Vineyard
Variety: Bordeaux-style Red Blend Washington
Winery: Eight Bells / Yakima Valley

This wine is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, Cabernet Franc, Carménère, Merlot and Petit Verdot, coming from a block designed by the late Master of Wine David Lake. Light aromas of herb, green pepper and cherry are followed by elegant fruit flavors that seem a bit faint. The oak appears to be dialed way back. Best paired with food.
