WINERY DESCRIPTION:
This Cabernet Sauvignon is inky plum in color, rich and viscous. Vanilla bean and sweet tobacco aromatics are carried on an amply structured wine with big fruit flavors of ripe cherries and black figs. The wine finishes with notes of fresh-tilled earth and spiced currants. Pair with a charred rare steak or enjoy on its own. Grapes are sourced from the Columbia Valley AVA vineyards: Alder Ridge, Canyon Vineyard Ranch, Taylor Mag and Summit View. After fermentation, it spent 23 months in barrel, 54% was new French. The blend is 96% Carbernet and 4% Petite Verdot.
Browne Family Vineyards was 15 years in the making before its first vintage ever debuted. Founder Andrew Browne selected viticulturists, winemakers and cellar masters to produce the best handcrafted lots. Known primarily for Cabernet Sauvignon, a Bordeaux red blend and Chardonnay, Browne Family has expanded to include Merlot and Petit Verdot. Each year’s limited production brings a fresh opportunity to raise the bar.
