Introduction:
Requiem Cabernet Sauvignon is a bold and expressive wine from the Columbia Valley, crafted primarily from Cabernet Sauvignon. Sourced from the Horse Heaven Hills and Red Mountain AVAs, this wine showcases depth, intensity, and structure.
Tasting Notes:
- Nose: Aromas of dark chocolate, bay leaves, black plums, and hints of tobacco.
- Palate: Creamy and full-bodied, with a juicy core of ripe black fruit framed by medium-firm tannins.
- Finish: Tasty and chocolatey, lingering with depth and elegance.
Pairings:
Best enjoyed with grilled ribeye, slow-roasted lamb, braised short ribs, or aged cheddar and gouda cheeses.
Winemaking:
This wine was co-fermented in wooden vats, followed by malolactic fermentation and aging for 20 months in a mix of 30% new French oak, 10% American oak, and second- and third-use barrels to enhance structure and complexity.
