DAILY DOUBLE Red Blend
A two vineyard blend of Cabernet Franc and Merlot.
Accolades from our last vintage release:
Jeb Dunnuck: sports a deep purple color as well ample smoky red and black fruits, toasted spice, cedary oak and dried herbs. It's medium to full-bodied and has a fresh, juicy style. Drink this ripe, pleasure-bent, enjoyable effort over the coming 4-5 years. (April 2020)

Washington Wine Blog: this Columbia Valley bottling shows dark fruits and oaky tones on the nose. The palate is quite ripe, with nice layers of black fruits and a hint of chocolate. This forward wine is very hard to resist right now.
WinePress NW: it's a Triple Crown of Yakima Valley vineyards. The fragrance is reminiscent of a stroll through a field of wild berries, while succulent plum, concentrated berries, cool spearmint, subtle spiced oak notes and bittersweet chocolate shavings fill the mouth. It's nicely balanced with complimentary acidity offsetting the dense fruit.
