Tasting Notes

2019 Rainmaker Cabernet Sauvignon is sourced from four iconic Washington State vineyards: Boushey, Olsen, Red Willow and Sagemoor. The nose is classic Cabernet Sauvignon: cassis, cherry, plum, blueberry, cedar, cigar box, vanilla, sweet oak, and crushed rock leading to flavors of black cherry, blackberry and sweet vanilla, and mineral on the silky and fine finish. As The Rainman might say, “It’s a very good cab, excellent cab.” Delicious in its youth, it will become ethereal with a few years of cellar time.  

Food pairing: Roasted maitake shepherd’s pie or roasted beef tenderloin au poivre

Movie pairing: Rainman or Singin’ in the Rain, depending on your jam
