點(diǎn)擊次數(shù)：2309

The 2007 424 Red Blend is composed of 39% Cabernet Franc, 36% Cabernet Sauvignon, 16% Merlot, and 9% Petit Verdot aged for 20 months in 50% new French oak. Dark ruby in color, it sports aromas of balsam wood, tobacco, earth, herbs, (sage and thyme), cassis, and black currant. This is followed by a layered, spicy, full-flavored wine with good volume and intensity. It will benefit from 2-3 years of additional cellaring and should be at its best through 2022. Located in Woodinville (along with 40-50 other wineries), Tim Stevens’ first vintage was 2001 with current production at 2500 cases. Stevens had worked exclusively with Yakima Valley fruit from Sheridan, Meek, DuBrul, and Dineen vineyards.Tel. (425) 453-5988; www.stevenswinery.com
