2015 2015 Feather Vintage Select

  • Winemaker Randy Dunn
  • Appellation Columbia Valley
  • Varietal Cabernet Sauvignon

All Long Shadows Vintners wines are made in small lots to allow maximum blending flexibility. Occasionally, a few lots of select barrels stand out as exemplary of the vintage. When this is the case and the winemaker identifies a rare, exceptional wine worthy of showcasing, a limited Vintage Select wine is bottled.

Tasting Notes:

A sophisticated wine showcasing the evolution of a beautiful vintage. Subtle hints of leather and earthiness enrich the wine’s generous aromas of vibrant black cherry. On the palate, dark fruit flavors unfold across a rich mid-palate, enhanced by silky tannins and a bright, juicy character that adds vibrancy and depth. Ten years of aging have shaped an elegant, harmonious character, culminating in a long, graceful finish that underscores the wine’s impeccable balance and layered complexity.

The 2015 Feather Vintage Select Reserve is a late release reserve bottling from the domaine and should be released in the next year or two. Opening with a dark-fruited core of generous blackberry, blackcurrant and dark plum aromas, the nose has a persistent depth that is truly special. On the palate, the wine turns more red fruited and tart, with a sturdy expression of oak tones appearing later on. The finish is focused, fresh and ripe, lingering with the rich and dense core of fruit that is still young. Only 122 cases were selected to receive the Feather Vintage Selection Reserve designation, and it will go quickly when it's officially released.

The 2015 Feather Vintage Select is made by Randy Dunn and is all Cabernet Sauvignon aged in new barrels. This rocking effort has tons of dark, cassis and currant styled fruits interwoven with notes of chocolate, graphite, and lead pencil-like aromas and flavors. Rich, full-bodied, and concentrated on the palate, it stays beautifully balanced, has ripe tannins, and is a straight-up gorgeous Columbia Valley Cabernet Sauvignon. Drink it any time over the coming two decades.
