The 2019 Conjurer is a remarkable blend of 46% Cabernet Sauvignon, 42% Cabernet Franc, and 12% Merlot. Our 3 Estate Vineyards in the Walla Walla valley, Red Man., and Horse Heaven Hills AVA's make up the fruit for the age-worthy yet approachable Bordeaux style blend. Starting with the gorgeous, medium ruby red color, it follows with aromatic notes of black cherries, dark berries, cinnamon spice, and cassis. It is richly textured yet still retains terrific acidity. Flavors of ripe Bing cherries and plum are balanced with earthy notes of tobacco and cool, wet forest floor. This year's blend is amazingly fresh and vibrant, and should age for another 12-15 years. As always, enjoy this wine with great friends!

The 2019 Conjurer is based on 46% Cabernet Sauvignon, 42% Cabernet Franc, and 12% Merlot that was brought up all in French oak. It has a spicy, complex, Cabernet Franc-like nose of red and black fruits, spring flowers, tobacco, and cedar. This carries to a medium to full-bodied, lively, beautifully balanced, elegant red that brings solid intensity while staying light and elegant, with a great finish.

Really good even in its youth, the Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc dominant 2019 The Conjurer spent 11 months in 25% new French oak prior to bottling. Toasty oak wraps around a beautiful core of blackberry, huckleberry and black tea flavors. The great veil of tension and soft texture add to the enjoyment. Best savored over the next five-plus years.
