2011 Spring Valley Vineyard Cabernet Franc Katherine Corkrum Estate Grown Walla Walla Valley
2011 Spring Valley Vineyard Cabernet Franc Katherine Corkrum Estate Grown Walla Walla Valley An aromatically subtle wine with notes of mortared herbs, flowers and cherry. The fruit flavors are elegantly styled, broadening with time, with a slightly gritty feel to the tannins but with a long finish.
Bordeaux Red Blends from Walla Walla Valley, Columbia Valley, Washington
Based on 48% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot, 14% Cabernet Franc, and 8% Malbec, the 2015 Red Wine Frederick gives up slightly more intensity, with notions of cassis, cedary herbs, graphite, and bouquet garni. It too is classic on the palate, with ripe tannins, a balanced, layered texture, and terrific length. It can be drunk today or cellared for 10-15 years.
This wine shines in the sunshine of the 2015 vintage with abundant dark cherries and red plums, as well as mulberries. The palate has very smoothly honed tannins and delivers a long, plush and approachable style. 48% cabernet sauvignon, 30% merlot, 14% cabernet franc and 8% malbec. Drink in the next six years.
Another blend dominated by Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, the 2015 Frederick isn’t too far from the Uriah, offering up aromas of spicy berry fruit and a juicy, medium to full-bodied palate with an attractively textural attack, powdery structuring tannins and juicy acids.
Spring Valley Vineyard is a limited-production winery producing only estate-grown-and-bottled red wines. For more than a century, the Corkum-Derby family has been farming the area known as Spring Valley. Grapes were first planted in 1993. Spring Valley produced its first estate grown and bottled wine, Uriah, with the 1999 vintage. Today, Uriah is one of Washington’s most acclaimed red wines, and the Spring Valley family of wines has grown to include seven red wines: Uriah (Merlot-based blend), Frederick (Cabernet Sauvignon-based blend), Nina Lee (100% Syrah), Katherine Corkrum (100% Cabernet Franc), Mule Skinner (100% Merlot), Derby (100% Cabernet Sauvignon) and the newest release, Sharilee (Petit Verdot). The names given to their wines are a tribute to the family members who have struggled and succeeded in farming the same land where Spring Valley Vineyard now flourishes.
