Along with Cab Sauvignon this wine has 15% Merlot and 10% Cab Franc. The Horse Heaven Hills fruit has a strong core of red currant fruit, wrapped in some chewy tannins that leave a lingering impression of green tea. There's just a hint of herb and forest floor—a Bordelaise nuance—and it remains somewhat tight and stiff, needing more bottle age and/or decanting.
