“The Indian Wells Cabernet is our warm climate ripe, jammy, “New
World” style of Cabernet Sauvignon. The 2006 blend really typifies the
Wahluke Slope region with up front, dark fruit aromas and flavors with
hints of vanilla. Vineyards in the area are more than a decade old now
and showing character and complexity.”

- This Cabernet is sourced from vineyards predominately from the
Wahluke Slope in Washington state, including our Indian Wells
Vineyard.
- Our most northern growing area, the Wahluke Slope is bordered on
both the west and the south by the Columbia River.
- Indian Wells Vineyard is a very warm site with a long growing season.
- The site’s loamy, sandy, well-draining soils allow vine growth to
be meticulously controlled through drip irrigation and canopy
management.
- The region is a consistent producer of high quality, ripe fruit, yielding
wine with intense color and flavor.
