Kooskooskia

2014 Idaho Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot

Colter's Creek Kooskooskia is a captivating red blend from Idaho that showcases the elegance of its varietals: Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot. The 2014 vintage presents a luscious and full-bodied profile that embraces a rich tapestry of flavors. Its acidity is bright and refreshing, providing a delightful counterbalance to the wine's prominent fruit intensity, which bursts forth with notes of ripe blackberries, dark cherries, and subtle hints of plum. The tannins are notably firm, adding structure and depth to the wine, while the overall dryness leaves a polished finish that invites another sip. This wine embodies a harmonious blend of complexity and approachability, making it a wonderful companion to a variety of culinary dishes.

From rich and powerful California Zinfandel to spicy Oregon Pinot Noir, and from full-bodied Washington Merlot to aromatic New York Riesling, the wines of the United States are nearly as diverse as its population. People have been making wine in North America from European vitis vinifera vines since the first French settlers arrived in the 1500s. Progress stalled along the way by pests and diseases that the vine had never encountered in its homelands, but today wine is produced in all 50 states. With more than 260 AVAs to discover, each with its unique climate and landscape, wines of the United States have much to offer.
