Novelty Hill 2021 Columbia Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
92 pts. James Suckling
"Aromas of sweet cherries and baked blueberries lead to a suave and velvety palate that’s rich in berries, cherries, cinnamon and mint flavors.” - James Suckling
The Columbia Valley is a diverse growing region that produces a wide range of fruit expressions, and few Washington winemakers know the vineyards as well as veteran vintner Mike Januik. The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon blends dark fruit aromas and flavors from Novelty Hill’s Stillwater Creek Estate on the Royal Slope of the Frenchman Hills with select grapes from top Red Mountain, Wahluke Slope, and White Bluff vineyards to build layered complexity and mouthfeel in the finished wine.
