The saturated purple-colored 2006 Ethos Cabernet Sauvignon also contains small quantities of Merlot, Petit Verdot, and Syrah. Sourced from the Canoe Ridge Estate, Cold Creek Vineyard, and Wahluke Slope, it was aged for 22 months in French and American oak. Attractive aromas of cedar, spice box, boysenberry, plum, and mocha are followed by a complex Cabernet with a velvety texture, rich fruit, plenty of spice notes, and enough structure to evolve for 3-4 years. This lengthy effort will deliver prime drinking from 2013 to 2026.

This firm red shows a definite minty edge to its berry and spice flavors, finishing with a mild grip of tannins.

“Washington Great Cabernet Values” San Francisco Chronicle - August 9, 2009
"A bit raw at first, with harder tannins dominating. Grows more supple and cassis-driven, with lifted green olive hints. But a stern oak note does remain. Give it time."

Far and away the most successful of Chateau Ste. Michelle's lot of new Cabernets, this very solid and well-focused offering has the fruity substance and depth of a serious wine. It also has an intimation of suppleness to come that makes its fairly aggressive back-palate tannins less of a worry, and, while it affirms its ripeness with a bit of heat at the finish, it is a promising youngster that can comfortably be counted on for four or five years more of positive growth.
