Requiem, 2020 Cabernet Sauvignon, Columbia Valley

Sourced from a quartet of top-tier, biodynamically farmed vineyards - Champoux, Wallula, SeVein and Loess, Requiem Cabernet Sauvignon has a very impressive pedigree. From the moment the first drop hits your palate, the structure and complexity of this Cabernet is striking - and the fruit is absolutely explosive! Look for flavors of black cherry, blackberry, cassis and black plum fruits followed by classic tobacco leaf, cedar, graphite, chocolate and baking spice notes. This bright, full and authentic Cabernet starts out really great but then, as it breathes, just gets better and better!

Our work in Oregon with AVERÆN put Washington State on our radar, big time. We've been hungry for a good Cabernet project that speaks to the quality of what we’ve historically made in Napa Valley, but at an irresistible price point. Finding the right fruit has taken several years, but we’re thrilled to have uncovered a true gem in our newest project, REQUIEM Wines. Our inaugural release comes from a blend of four parcels from some of the top vineyards in the Columbia Valley and we are fortunate to have teamed up with some top-notch partners at an amazing boutique winery in Walla Walla to occupy a corner of their winery.
