 2005 STEVENSXY This is the 3rd release of our coveted 2005 StevensXY Reserve Cabernet. Once again, we selected a small grouping of our favorite barrels to put into this very muscular all Cab blend. We used more new French oak (75%) to drive the fruit and tannins. The result is a wine that accelerates you smoothly into the fast lane. The fruit for this years blend came from two sources: Dineen Vineyard in the Upper Yakima, which brought lots of cocoa and black raspberry flavors, while the DuBrul Vineyard, Mid Yakima Valley, lent structure, earthiness and finesse. The combo creates a wine that showcases the Valley’s unique character. This is a go big or go home wine that can be consumed on release, but may also be cellared for years to come. 180 cases produced.
Now’s your chance to put your order in before it’s gone. The order form can be faxed, mailed, or attached and sent via email. Like last year, there will be a private pick-up party for those who have purchased futures, sometime in September.
The wine is sold in 3-pak units.
