Number 93 on the Wine.com 100 of 2007! Blend: 91% Cabernet Sauvignon, 9% Merlot This is the second vintage of the Indian Wells Cabernet, and the wine showcases the characteristics of a warmer climate Cabernet. The wine opens with explosive fruit aromas. Flavors and aromas of jammy blackberry, smoke, warm toast and hints of vanilla mingle on the palate. -Bob Bertheau, Winemaker Food pairings: stuffed peppers, blue cheese, duck, beef, veal, dark chocolate

Quite possibly the best cabernet under $20. Amazing. Washington state goodness.
