“The Canoe Ridge Estate Cabernet delivers black cherry fruit,
spicy oak, leather and sweet caramel characters. Its soft,
elegant, slightly dusty finish is typical of Canoe Ridge
Estate. This wine shows the more “subtle” side of
Washington Cabernet. It doesn’t hit you over the head, but
rather gently entices you with seductive fruit and spice
layers. Try this with penne pasta marinara or veal
scaloppini. Those slightly “dusty Tuscan” tannins are a
great match with Italian foods.”

- The vineyard at Canoe Ridge Estate lies on a steep south-facing
slope on the bank of the Columbia River in Washington's Horse
Heaven Hills AVA.
- The site's proximity to the river protects it from temperature
extremes, allowing uniform ripening and excellent color
development.
- Soils are sandy with bits of cobblestone and have low
water-holding capacity, enabling precise control of vine growth
through drip irrigation and canopy management.
- The site typically enjoys an early bud break and a long growing
season.
