Description:
Classic Cabernet aromatics of black currant, bing cherry, and ripe raspberry followed by subtle notes of dark chocolate, rose hips, beechwood, vanilla bean, thyme, and Turkish spices. Order from the Largest & Most Trusted Premium Spirits Marketplace! , Wine Enthusiast: Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and a tiny bit of Petit Verdot unite in this youthful wine. Its raspberry and black-cherry aromas are complemented by the scent of freshly roasted coffee beans. Flavors of dark chocolate, orange zest and seared steak go on seemingly forever. It's full of great acidity and grippy tannins. NOTICE: Many other small liquor store sites may end up cancelling your order due to the high demand, unavailability or inaccurate inventory counts. We have partnerships consisting of a large network of licensed retailers from within the United States, Europe and across the world ensuring orders are fulfilled. Producer: Gramercy Cellars Ratings: WE | 94 Vintage: 2018 Size: 750ml ABV: 14% Varietal: Cabernet Sauvignon Country/Region: United States, Washington Classic Cabernet aromatics of black currant, bing cherry, and ripe raspberry followed by subtle notes of dark chocolate, rose hips, beechwood, vanilla bean, thyme, and Turkish spices. This wine leans more towards elegance than power. The palate has silky approachable tannins with firm acidity carrying the mid palate. The finish is long but soft and approachable. Reviews: Founded in 2005, Gramercy Cellars is the realization of Greg and Pam Harrington's dream to make fine wine in a special place. Prior to founding Gramercy Cellars, Greg spent what seemed like a lifetime as a sommelier and wine program director for top chefs such as Joyce Goldstein, Emeril Lagasse and Wolfgang Puck. Since becoming the youngest American to pass the Master Sommelier Exam at the age of 26, Greg has been passionate about someday making his own wine. His Washington odyssey began in the Spring of 2004, at a backyard picnic in Brooklyn, hosted by the Walla Walla Wine Alliance. There, Greg and Pam tasted wines that surprised them. They were very different from what they had come to expect from American wines. These were wines that displayed earthy characteristics and balance. A marathon tasting trip in Walla Walla later that spring (and Pam's discovery of the term "palate fatigue") convinced them that Walla Walla was in their future. First, this meant "when they retire." That quickly became "5 years from now." Meanwhile, Greg worked harvest in 2004 in Walla Walla and was more convinced than ever that Walla Walla was the place in the United States to make the wines he loves. Soon thereafter, Pam gave him the green light to leave his restaurant industry job to seize the opportunity to finally follow his dreams full time, resulting in Gramercy's first harvest in 2005. In 2006, Greg and Pam moved to Washington to establish and build the legacy of great Washington wine at Gramercy Cellars. 2010 was a watershed vintage for Gramercy. Vineyards, vintage and style have all come together as clearly evidenced by wines of amazing personality and quality. Tempranillo and the red Rhone blends - The Third Man and L'Idiot du Village showcase intense, pure fruit with rich textures and fine acid-tannin structure. The bright, intense, blue-black fruited Lagniappe Syrah is co-fermented with a dollop of Viognier and aged 18 months in 85% neutral French oak. In New Orleans, Lagniappe, means, a little something extra. The Walla Walla Valley Syrah is whole cluster fermented, aged in neutral oak and is fatter and meatier. The Cabs have both power and finesse and are built for an extra long haul. Finally, the Ros' is a full-bodied but not heavy Rhone blend that marks a new quality high for WA pink. Walla Walla native, Brandon Moss, worked harvests at King Estate and in New Zealand. Upon returning to Walla Walla he became cellar master at Waters Winery before joining Gramercy as assistant winemaker. In 2011 Brandon became a partner in Gramercy Cellars. This is a very important, world-class producer!
