Abeja
Spanish for bee, name is pronounced 'ah-BAY-ha'. Name is chosen for its simple beauty and its reminder of times past when farming implied a respect for the environment and close connection to the earth. Abeja is located on a century olad farmstead in the breathtaking foothills of the Blue Mountains. Once seriously dilapidated, all of the original farm buildings have been carefully restored with an emphasis on craftsmanship and longevity. Creative use of salvaged materials adds interest and sets the stage for renewed purpose in these old buildings, which now house our winery and our guests.
– Description from Mimi Kim
A varietal Cabernet that exhibits the brooding depth this variety can achieve: grilled meat, toasted boule bread, savory herbs, crushed blackberries, cigar wrapper and fresh leather swirl into a delicious, harmonious flavor field with a persistent finish.

Abeja Merlot Columbia Valley 2005
Snoothrank:
We opened the first in August much earlier than expected after finding some very slight leakage from the capsule - fill level still very good - and no apparent harm to the wine yet (it was a spring 08 release). While it's hard to say how well/long this will age, if you like rich and concentrated reds that manage to balance acidity/tannin, it sho... Read More
