Parris Cabernet Sauvignon, 2002
This Parris Cabernet Sauvignon is a flagship reserve wine from Chandler Reach Vineyards of Benton City Washington. For the past 10 years, owner/winemaker, Len Parris, has been producing lovely wines from estate grapes grown on north-facing slopes adjacent to the Red Mountain appellation. We had cellared this wine for the past 3 years. The wine shows a deep ruby color with good clarity, but nearly opaque. The nose is packed with black fruit and hints of spicy oak. The flavors are bold, full bodied and intense. Flavors of red raspberry, blackberry, espresso and cassis are framed with tones of earth, leather and vanilla oak. The flavors are balanced by gentle acidity in fully integrated tannins creating a wine with excellent depth and length. Chandler Reach Vineyards should be proud of this elegant wine. The current vintage of this wine is being sold for about $40.
