Abeja Cabernet Sauvignon 2004

BN#218681 |
This is the varietal that we believe will increasingly be recognized as the icon varietal of Washington State and comprises the majority of our production. This Cabernet is stylish, elegant, and impeccably balanced. We accomplish this by meticulous viticultural management, utilization of a rare sorting system, gentle handling of the fruit and the wine, customized practices for every lot no matter how small, and carefully selected French oak.
Wine Enthusiast
Supple and firm, the only word for this exceptionally smooth, sexy Cabernet is suave. It’s delicious and silky, pure varietal, blended from a mix of top vineyards. The wine is a portrait of grace and power, folding its berry and cassis fruit into layers of smoke, toast, ash and char. A suggestion of cigar runs through the finish, and this is a wine that is sure to reward further cellaring. — P.G. (8/1/2007)
Score: 92.
