Rasa 2009 Creative Impulse Cabernet Sauvignon (Yakima Valley)

Country: US / Creative Impulse
Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon Washington
Winery: Rasa / Yakima Valley

This blend of 71% Cabernet Sauvignon and 29% Merlot is sourced from the excellent DuBrul Vineyard. The fruit is magnificent, smoothly presented in a flow of cherry, plum and prune flavors. It seems soaked in chocolate, with a Bourbon-barrel highlight. The tannins are fine-grained and contribute to the overall length.
