2006 Spring Valley Uriah Red, Walla Walla (750ml)

"This new Uriah marks a return to form; big, brawny, chewy and complex, yet generous and complete. The blend continues as before-54% Merlot, 33% Cab Franc, 7% Petit Verdot, and 6% Malbec, all estate-grown. The wine opens with barrel scents and flavors of tea, tobacco and wood smoke. The cherry-flavored fruit saturates the tobacco notes, gaining mass and turning into cherry cobbler as it does." 93 points - Wine Enthusiast, August 1, 2010
