The 2016 Buty ‘Rockgarden Estate’ Red Wine is a fantastic effort by the talented Chris Dowsett. The nose is very pretty with floral and red fruit tones dominating and lighter wet stone character also shining brightly. I love the mouthfeel and salinity of the wine as the wine shows red cherry, cran-pomegranate and wet stone flavors with a good tension. It is hard to find a wine quite like this in Washington.
