If you’re wondering why so many wine enthusiasts are excited about the wines of Washington, look no further than this beauty from Washington’s Red Mountain district. Bold and muscular, with impressive extract that would be the envy of top wineries in the Napa Valley, the 2017 Canvasback is a towering example of Washington Cabernet at its very best. This one shows aromas of blackberry and cassis, fine tannins and a long finish that delivers plenty of oak spice.
