Wine Description:
This Grand Estates Red Blend is crafted by Columbia Crest, one of Washington's largest wineries. It blends Merlot, Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon. Sourced from diverse sites across the valley, the blend offers raspberry tones from cooler locations and black cherry and pepper nuances from warmer sites. Aging in oak barrels of varying sizes, toast levels, and cooperages enhances the wine's structure. The result is an approachable wine known for its rich, full-bodied style, featuring notes of dark fruit, spice, and a subtle oak influence. Aromas of dark plum, dried cassis, and tobacco precede flavors of chocolate-covered dried cherries on the palate, leading to a smooth finish with hints of spice and caramel.
Pros:
  • Rich and robust flavors

Cons:
