Tasting notes
Bright medium ruby. Subdued but pure aromas of black plum, kirsch and leather, with slightly herbal suggestions of tobacco leaf and black olive adding nuance. Then full and primary in the mouth, with youthfully aggressive flavors of black- and redcurrant and licorice. Finishes with firm tannic backbone that calls for a couple years of patience.

The excellent 2001 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve (4,000 cases) offers a nose of blackberries and fresh herbs. Licorice-laced dark fruits are intermingled with tar and herbs in its complex, deep personality. Its long finish reveals a solid backbone that will require moderate patience. Projected maturity: 2007-2014. Tel. (509) 875-2061 www.columbia-crest.com
