2017 Andrew Will Winery Champoux Vineyard Red Blend 750ML
2017 Andrew Will Winery Champoux Vineyard Red Blend 750ML Deep ruby with purple highlights, the 2017 Champoux Vineyard is a stunning success with elegance and complexity bursting at the seams. Seductive blackberry essence, dusty plum skin, dark cherries and cassis waft out of the glass with delicate dusty floral tones, dried tobacco and graphite nuances. Medium to full-bodied, the wine is balanced with rich complexity and an elegant mineral tension before offering up a clearly delineated fruit frame compounded by focus, precision and finesse. At present, the wine has a pleasingly tannic edge and finishes with a mineral tension and red-fruited succulence that continue to evolve in the mouth. Simply stellar!

The Andrew Will Winery started in 1989 by Chris Camarda and named after is nephew Andrew and his son Will. They were instrumental in putting Washington State on the map as one of the great regions of the world producing Bordeaux style wines. They only make a total of 4500 cases a year with each wine being vineyard inspired, blend changing every year. Very artisanal and hand on, they compare winemaking to more like gardening than farming. This all about the wine, no tastings at the winery, no sales production rather it’s about what’s in the bottle and wow are they good at putting great wines in their bottles.
