This was their "Joy Anderson Reserve" from Columbia Valley grapes.
Clear ruby in color, with cherries, earth, and black pepper on the nose. Cherry flavors dominate, and it's relatively light in texture for a Cab. Good balancing use of oak, with only a smidge of vanilla coming across on the finish. Good burger wine, though it was a stand-alone midweek wine over two evenings. At 13.5% alc., would make for a versatile food wine. Good QPR, as it only ran us $14 at the winery on special. We picked it up at the small offline in the summer of '05.
