Smasne Cellars 2003 Bunk House Red (Columbia Valley (WA))

Country: US / Bunk House
Variety: Red Blend Washington
Winery: Smasne Cellars / Columbia Valley (WA)

Despite the extra bottle age, it’s a very youthful, dense wine. The Malbec is battened down with spicy purple fruit flavors and compact tannins. The balance is acid-driven, and the presence of new oak is muted. Will the tannins soften before the fruit fades? It’s worth socking a bottle or two away to find out.
