Januik 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon (Columbia Valley (WA))

Country: US /
Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon Washington
Winery: Januik / Columbia Valley (WA)

At first this wine seems quite astringent, closed and tight. It shows dark streaks of cassis and dried leaf, and it only reluctantly opens up to expand the black fruit flavor with a wash of Bourbon barrel.
