J. Bookwalter 2012 Conflict Conner-Lee Vineyard Red (Columbia Valley (WA))

Country: US / Conflict Conner-Lee Vineyard
Variety: Red Blend Washington
Winery: J. Bookwalter / Columbia Valley (WA)

This wine is a blend of 63% Cabernet Sauvignon, 32% Merlot and 5% Syrah. It offers roasty-toasty aromas of dark coffee, bittersweet chocolate, char and cherry. The palate is appealing and silky in texture, showing elegant styling but with a lot of flavor intensity, followed by a lengthy finish. It’s a pleasing mix of grace and power, barrel and fruit.
