Production

Chateau Ste. Michelle owns 3,500 acres in Washington state's renowned Columbia Valley. The Columbia Valley American Viticulture Area (AVA) is a region separated from Seattle's rainy, marine climate by the Cascade Mountains. The mountains shield the rain, limiting annual rainfall to 6-8 inches, allowing our vineyard managers to control vine vigour through irrigation. All vines in the Columbia Valley are planted on their own rootstock, which helps us maintain the health and longevity of our vineyards and preserves the grape variety in its natural state.

The ripe grapes were de-stemmed and inoculated with various strains of yeast to maximise complexity. Gentle pump-overs during fermentation were used to extract colour and flavour and to produce soft, supple tannins. The wine was then oak aged for 14 months.

Tasting Notes

Rich yet accessible Cabernet Sauvignon from Columbia Valley's oldest winery, robust, unpretentious and packed with blackcurrants, raspberries and plums.

This is really versatile, try with blue cheese, beef, veal, and dark chocolate. It is a wine that can cope with robust flavours like mustard, paprika, rosemary, thyme, cloves and ginger.
