Wine Press Northwest
“Ray got Cab Sauv (64%) and Merlot (10%) from his previous employer - Kestrel“ and Malbec (26%) from Klingele, then built a cellar-worthy wine as sturdy as a erector set. Blackberries, black cherries, slated and charcoal notes lead to a palate of ripe blackberries, seeds and all. Coffee and milk chocolate notes flow in the finish, and that tannin structure should pair nicely with flank, tri tips or a pork chop served with a chutney that incorporates balsamic vinegar. The Chelan winemaker projects a lifetime of 8 to 15 years for this wine.” Andy Perdue
