Pepper Bridge 2011 Seven Hills Vineyard Red (Walla Walla Valley (WA))

Country: US / Washington
Variety: Bordeaux-style Red Blend
Winery: Pepper Bridge / Seven Hills Vineyard

Aromatic with crushed rock, raspberry, cranberry and hints of clove, this well-structured wine—53% Cabernet Sauvignon, 16% Merlot, 21% Cabernet Franc and 10% Petit Verdot—will reward additional bottle age. The young, tart red fruits are steely and precise, the barrel influence perfectly balanced against the natural acidity.
