Tulpen 2009 Dryland Cabernet Sauvignon (Walla Walla Valley (WA))

Country: US / Dryland
Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon Washington
Winery: Tulpen / Walla Walla Valley (WA)

This new cuvĂ©e features grapes from both Tokar and Yellowbird vineyards, located out in the Mill Creek region east of downtown Walla Walla. It’s close enough to the Blue Mountains to allow for this experiment in dry-farmed (non-irrigated) grapes. Flavors are distinctive, showing wild berries, cola, grain and herb.
