Januik 2021 Reserve Red

94 pts. James Suckling

 

"This silky and refined offering from one of Washington’s most experienced winemakers blends 77% cabernet sauvignon, 13% merlot and 10% cabernet franc. Cool blueberries, plump black cherries and subtle oak spices carry all the way through to a lingering finish. Drink now or hold for several years."

 

Every vintage, winemaker Mike Januik sets aside a few select lots for his Reserve Red. These barrels represent the best of the vintage and are chosen for a special blend styled for complexity, texture, and depth of flavor.
