NORTHSTAR Red blend, Walla Walla Valley 2012

The 2012 Northstar 'Red Blend' is a lovely new release from this estate. The wine is comprised of 56% Cabernet and the rest Merlot, weighing in at just under 15% alcohol. Highly perfumed and dense red and dark fruits on the nose with a touch of milk chocolate. The palate is plush, with flavors of crème de cassis, black plum, black cherry and baking spices. This has a silky mouthfeel that glides effortlessly through the palate. (Best 2016-2026) - November, 2016 (OB)
