2017 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve

Vineyard notes

Double D Vineyard is situated 15 miles Southwest of Lake Chelan, along the Columbia River. From near the river’s edge at an elevation of 700 feet, 55 acres are planted up to 940 feet on a north-facing slope of fine silt loam and tumbled granite. One of our most popular and highly acclaimed wines, this bottling is produced using only the finest blocks of Cabernet Sauvignon from our sustainably farmed Double D Estate Vineyard.
