Those grapes produced a wine with dark blue fruit and spice aromas, followed by black cherry and black currant flavors, spice and generous tannins sporting dark chocolate elements in its lengthy finish. This won a gold medal and best of class at the sixth annual Cascadia International Wine Competition.
