East West Columbia Valley Red Wine 2019

Washington State is neatly cut down the middle, north to south, by the Cascade Mountains. Their ‘rain shadow’ effect keeps the area to the east dry, and this, together with long daylight hours, creates perfect wine-growing conditions. Taste for yourself with East West, a sumptuous red blend.

East West hails from the eastern side of Washington, specifically the Columbia Valley (where you’ll find the state’s best wines). The brilliant sunshine and lengthy, dry growing season ripened the grapes to perfection and created seriously intense, concentrated flavors. In the cellar, aging in French and American oak barrels softened the tannins and added intriguing spice notes.

Look forward to concentrated black currant, dark berry and licorice aromas. The palate is juicy and rounded, with well-integrated tannins, rich black-fruit flavors plus hints of chocolate and ginger spice (from the oak aging) on the finish. A great match for roasted or barbecued meats.
