A Doubleback Dream

Winemaker: Drew Bledsoe

Elizabeth Chardonnay 2019: A long, warm summer meant 2017 was a stunning vintage for Chardonnay in Washington and this wine is a testament to it! Upon pouring you’ll be hit with intense aromas of pear and tropical fruits which translates into a rich, buttery flavour high in natural acidity on the palate. Aged for 8 months on it’s lees and only very delicately oaked, less than 800 cases were produced of this exclusive wine so grab it while you can!

Bledsoe Family Winery: The new Cabernet Sauvignon, formerly known as the “Flying B”, is driven aromatically with red fruits- bright raspberry, fresh strawberries, and is followed by ultra pretty hints of perfumed lavender, sage, and herbs de Provence. The palate has rich, chewy tannins, loads of length, is well balanced, and everything that there is to love about simply pure great Cabernet. Drink now through 2035!

Doubleback Cabernet Sauvignon 2018: An absolutely stunning year and a vintage. One true challenge is creating a wine that will age for decades but will also drink well on release. 2018 accomplished that to perfection. Crème de cassis, black currant, blackberry, wafts of dried cranberry, a hint of wet gravel after a fresh rain and pencil shavings. The richness of this wine is a love affair – chewy tannins and a long, long finish is something that I truly gravitate towards in wines that I enjoy on a personal level and it is on high display here. Everything is in balance. Enjoy this wine now through 2043.
