"The Canoe Ridge Estate Cab is a beautifully balanced wine that offers a classic, fresh expression of Horse Heaven Hills fruit. The wine offers black current flavors, hints of sage and elegant tannins. The cooler vintage in 2010 led to an enhanced “Old World” restrained elegant character. I love this wine with just about any food!"

with a clean, refreshing finish. We age the wine in restrained, lighter French oak barrels to maintain the fresh style of this Chardonnay. To me this is a crisp, fresh food wine.”
