2005 Sheridan Vineyard L’orage Red Blend, Washington

The ’05 Sheridan Vineyard L’Orage is a blend of 65% Cabernet and 35% Cabernet Franc with aromas of dark fruit and chocolate. On the palate, it’s a slightly chunky wine with blueberries, blackberries and cassis with a medium-long, cigar box finish. I’d recommend decanting before drinking.

Rating: Very Good | $42 | 14.1% ABV
