Adamant Cellars 2008 Nalin Red (Columbia Valley (WA))

Country: US / Nalin
Variety: Bordeaux-style Red Blend Washington
Winery: Adamant Cellars / Columbia Valley (WA)

A Bordeaux-style blend of Cabernet, Malbec and Merlot, this bright and grapy effort pleasingly integrates slightly rougher notes of earth, leaf and stem. It all works here, adding texture and detail to the tart berry fruits. Drink in the next 3–5 years.
