Bartier Bros. 2024 Pristine Rosé
Cabernet Sauvignon forms most of this pale rosé, joined by Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Riesling. The grapes come from Washington’s Columbia Valley and the wine is made in Oliver, British Columbia. Watermelon, rosehip and cranberry tea appear with grapefruit, soft red berries, orchard fruit and fine spice. Bright acidity and a silky texture are also present in the crisp, refreshing profile.
Charles Smith Wines 2009 Kung Fu Girl Riesling
Floral, mineral and pear scents accompany lime, wet stone, apricot and tangerine. Key lime, clove and nectarine are also present in a smooth, vibrant profile. The wine is just off-dry. Made entirely from Riesling grown at Evergreen Vineyard in the Ancient Lakes area of Columbia Valley, it can accompany spicy dishes or appetizers. The bottle uses a screw cap.
Quilceda Creek 2011 CVR Red Wine
Red fruit, herbs, smoke and anise accompany a rich, seamless character. The blend is 91% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Merlot and 2% Cabernet Franc from Columbia Valley vineyards. It aged twenty-two months in 100% French oak. The three-grape blend, red-fruit profile and oak ageing are all part of this Washington red, with herbs, smoke and anise also present.
Long Shadows Vintners 2007 Saggi Sangiovese Cabernet Blend Columbia Valley
Plum, dried flowers and black cherry lead with cedar, licorice, pepper and Asian spice. Lush and broad on the palate, the red blend combines supple texture with lively inner energy, layering cassis, red fruit and floral detail over fine-grained tannins. Savoury depth and measured oak carry the concentrated fruit into a long, polished finish.
Be Human 2018 Merlot Columbia Valley
Blackberry and blueberry lead this deep-coloured red, with gentle oak spice framing the fruit. The palate is soft and smooth, its Merlot core broadened by darker berry depth and a measured line of tannin. Generous without feeling heavy, it closes cleanly and lingers with polished fruit, warmth and easy balance.
