Country: US / Collaboration Series V Ciel du Cheval Vineyard
Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon Washington
Winery: Force Majeure / Red Mountain

Chris Gorman is the winemaker for this pure, old vine Cabernet Sauvignon. It is a full force gale of a wine, sappy and dense, with blackberry and cassis fruit wreathed in smoke and dark accents from aging in 100% new French oak. Young, big and bold, it remains poised and balanced, with juicy acidity keeping all the flavors in proportion.
