Reviews and Ratings

Jennifer Havers - WSET Level 3 rated this wine as 91/100 with the following review:

Aromas of currant, blackberry, mint, graphite, mocha, and smoke. Full bodied on the palate, with medium acidity, soft tannins, and flavours including ripe currant, raspberry, mocha, with some smoke and spice on the finish. Enjoy with grilled meats.
From Columbia Valley, Washington wine region, Drumheller 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon is well-priced at $20! This is a medium-plus-bodied Cabernet Sauvignon with fresh aromas of cassis, black cherry, mint, smoky vanilla flavours and refined acidity on the palate. Pair with roast beef sandwiches. - Community Wine Reviews
