Mark Ryan Winery, Columbia Valley (Washington) 2021

May 15, 2024

By Roger Morris

 Some wines just won’t let you forget them.  This is a very nice wine, but the long finish and aftertaste is what really hooks you.  Merlot dominant with some Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc, it is smooth, light on the palate and very elegant.  It is lightly creamy with lingering dark cherry flavors, and some very light and positive barrel notes with mild tannins.
