Spring Valley Vineyards Red Wine Frederick Walla Walla Valley 2017

93 pts – Wine Spectator

Rich and polished, with an elegantly complex core that drives the black cherry and dusky spice flavors toward a long finish, with medium-grained tannins. Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Cabernet Franc and Merlot. Drink now through 2027.

92 pts – James Suckling

Black plums, boysenberries, licorice, herbs and chocolate orange on the nose. It’s full-bodied with firm, creamy tannins. Polished, flavorful and balanced. Delicious now.

91 pts – Wine Enthusiast

Graphite, blackberry, spice and herb aromas lead to ripe, luscious, juicy fruit flavors. There’s a lot of intensity and plenty of structure around it all. It’s a can’t-miss crowd-pleaser, with a good life in front of it.
