    		2003 Walla Walla Valley Red Wine
  • Appellation: Walla Walla Valley
  • Blend of Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Basel Cellars Estate Winery (Walla Walla, WA) -- (Winery Info & All Wines)
  • The fragrant nose is reminiscent of sweet plums, raspberry tea, molasses, cinnamon, and mocha. The rich, concentrated mouth has flavors of ripe chocolate-covered cherries and blackberries, and finishes with beautifully integrated tannins. It should easily age for ten years, and perhaps longer.
  • Acclaim: 89 points Steve Tanzers International Wine Cellar Dec 2005"Bright, full ruby-red. Currant, cherry, raspberry, nutty oak and a whiff of tea on the nose. Juicy, firm and penetrating, with distinctly dry flavors of bitter cherry, cherry skin, fresh herbs, licorice and dark chocolate. Showing its cabernet franc side today. This has depth, tannic structure and good tang, especially for a wine with close to 15% alcohol." ST
