Dense and deeply colored in the glass, this bold, robust Cabernet offers enticing aromas and a lavish core of black fruits complemented by dried rosemary, ripe plum, earthy notes and oak spice. Lush and beautifully balanced on the mid-palate, structured tannins combine to provide a harmonious impression that stretches across a long, graceful finish.

97 Points

All Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2021 Feather is inky purple-hued and offers a brilliant nose of cassis, new leather, graphite, and truffly earth. This rich, spicy, full-bodied Cabernet Sauvignon has terrific purity, a deep, layered mid-palate, and a broad, layered, expansive mouthfeel that keeps you coming back to the glass.

A standout wine from a tough vintage, the 2021 ‘Feather’ comes from primarily the Weinbau and Dionysus Vineyards in the White Bluffs AVA, as well as a handful of sites in the Horse Heaven Hills AVA. Pencil lead and cedar wood mark the nose alongside hints of white pepper dusted chocolate and creme de cassis. This comes off exceedingly elegant and seamless throughput the drinking experience, as the oak treatment caresses the mid-palate. Like all great wines from this vintage, enjoy now in its heady youth.

This 100% Cabernet Sauvignon began as a partnership with winemaker Randy Dunn of Napa Valley. It opens with a heady, minty aroma and dense black currant flavors shaded by char, graphite and black figs wrapped in plenty of fine-grained tannins. Time will be the friend of this muscular wine.

Vineyards

The 2021 Feather relies on three distinct Washington State Cabernet Sauvignon growing regions to create a complex, layered wine. Weinbau Vineyard (Wahluke Slope) gives Feather its texture and backbone. Dionysus Vineyard (WhiteBluffs) brings intense, dark fruit, and a collection of top Horse Heaven Hills vineyards give the wine a silky, elegant texture and its appealing earthiness.
