Snipes Mountain

Medium

Cork

It's an utterly gorgeous wine. Harrison Hill is a bit of an out-of-place vineyard within the Snipes Mountain AVA, sitting among homes and yards in a neighbourhood in the Yakima Valley. Its 61-year-old Cabernet vines, however, create some of the state's most compelling wines year over year. Effusively elegant, Old World aromas of red rose petals and violets blend with sumac, forest floor and tart cranberry. An aroma profile so expressive and fresh, along with the sub-14%abv, is a rarity in Washington State. The palate eschews the 100% new French oak expectation, offering instead so much freshness, verve and bright complexity. Tayberries, sumac, pine bough, and smoked cedar plank mingle with graphite-driven minerals, flint and early-season cherries—one of the top wines of the vintage.
