2009 Columbia Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
Chateau Ste. Michelle Cold Creek Vineyard is a remarkable Cabernet Sauvignon from the esteemed Columbia Valley, showcasing the rich potential of this iconic region. This full-bodied red wine greets the senses with a deep garnet hue, hinting at its complexity. The acidity is vibrant, balancing the luscious fruit flavors that leap from the glass, with notes of blackcurrant and cherry intermingled with subtle hints of dark chocolate and cedar. Tannins are firm yet approachable, providing a structured mouthfeel that enhances the wine's longevity. The overall impression is that of a wine that is dry, allowing the fruit characteristics to shine through without being overpowering, making it an exquisite choice for pairing with grilled meats or hearty dishes.
