2016 SPRING VALLEY VINEYARD FREDERICK RED WINE WALLA WALLA VALLEY

(90 Points)At 93%, this could easily be a varietally designated Cabernet Sauvignon. The aromas show a distinct wheat and herbal note, the hallmark of this vineyard. Baking chocolate, cherry, green pepper and spice notes follow. The palate is plump and flavorful, while showing an appealing sense of elegance.
