NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
Chateau Ste.Michelle Ethos Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon is a highly regarded wine that showcases the excellence of Washington State's Cabernet Sauvignon. This wine is known for its rich and complex flavors, elegant structure, and exceptional aging potential.
On the nose, you can expect to find intense aromas of blackberry, cassis, and dark chocolate, accompanied by hints of cedar and vanilla from the oak aging. The palate is full-bodied and velvety, with ripe black fruit flavors, well-integrated tannins, and a long, lingering finish.
The Ethos Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon is a wine that can be enjoyed now, but it also has the potential to age gracefully for several years, allowing its flavors to further develop and evolve. It pairs wonderfully with grilled meats, hearty stews, and aged cheeses.
