The 2023 Cabernet Sauvignon slowly evolves with nuances of gravel dust and dried violets, giving way to citrus-inflected blackberries. It's savory in style with cooling acidity and a soothingly round feel as herbal tones resonate over a wave of dark red fruits. This wine tapers off with a pleasantly bitter tinge yet remains fresh, leaving a tart wild berry twang.

Winemaker Notes

The 2023 vintage of Bledsoe Family Cabernet Sauvignon is a stunning example of a great growing season. Driven by red fruit, freshly picked blackberries, small hints of vanilla mixed with the sagebrush land that surrounds the vineyards. The mouthfeel is beautiful, generous, rich, soft, and layered, loaded with drinking pleasure. Another great example of quintessential Walla Walla Valley Cabernet Sauvignon aiming to punch above its weight class.
Blend: 85% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Petit Verdot, 4% Malbec, 4% Merlot
