Columbia Valley

1.5-Liter Format

2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Columbia Valley 1.5L

An intriguing nose displays aromas of cola, cloves, leather and plum. Muscular tannins are well balanced by fruit and come into further harmony with earthy, sophisticated layers. On the palate huckleberry, cassis and Morello cherries are matched by briny olive, walnut and black pepper which drive toward a lingering finish. While a beauty in its youth, this wine’s depth and complexity promises to deliver further enjoyment with time.

Wine Profile
Ratings
"Deep and brooding once in the glass, the 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Columbia Valley deftly showcases this outstanding vintage, as the team at Abeja has chosen to blend in 11% merlot and a splash of Cabernet Franc to this opulent wine. The oak treatment frames this nicely, harnessing the core of full-bodied dark fruits and sagebrush tones. Delightful now for its combination of weight and tension, this outstanding Columbia Valley Cabernet Sauvignon has a long way to go in the cellar." Owen Bargeen, Vinous 93 pts.
