Buty Winery, Columbia Valley (Washington) Merlot, Cabernet Franc 2016

Apr 22, 2019

By Rich Cook

 An energetic blend that’ll make you wonder what all the fuss about Cabernet Sauvignon is for.  Clearly built to be a layered wine that works with the interplay of red fruit, fall spice and baker’s chocolate, which drive the nose and palate and finish together with good push and a lingering dusty chocolate cherry vibe.  Bravo!
