Similar to the straight Cabernet release, the 2013 Walla Walla Reserve has even more Cabernet Sauvignon in the blend and is 81% Cabernet, 11% Petit Verdot and 8% Merlot. It does nicely in the vintage and has beautiful purity and elegant as well as textbook Cabernet notes of cassis, toasted spice, graphite, scorched earth and hints of chocolate. A touch fresher and more focused than the Cabernet Sauvignon release, this beautiful concentrated, impeccably balanced 2013 will need 4-5 years of cellaring and have 20-25 years of overall longevity. - Jeb Dunnuck

Sour cherries, red plums, hints of flowery underbrush and animal tones define the 2013 Red Wine Reserve. Round and supple, this impresses with its ripe fruits and mineral tones. Juicy acidity works to maintain an energetic feel. It tapers off long and spicy, leaving tart blackberry and dusty inner florals to mingle with adolescent tannins and a hint of mint. There is a bit of brett on the 2013, yet it provides a pleasantly rustic edginess to the wine. The 2013 is just entering its drinking window. -- Eric Guido
