Maryhill Winery 2015 McKinley Springs Vineyard Cinsault, Horse Heaven Hills, $40
By Great Northwest Wine on September 15, 2018
The talented Richard Batchelor sourced his Cinsault from McKinley Springs Vineyard in the Horse Heaven Hills, and he came up with another winner. The 2015 vintage produced a wine with floral notes and hints of strawberry and dried fruit in the nose. In the mouth, it’s more plummy with a red tone to it, smooth tannins and a sweet fruit finish. Try it with escargot, stews and roasted meats. This won a double gold medal at the sixth annual Cascadia International Wine Competition.
Rating: Outstanding!
Production: 220 cases
Alcohol: 14.5%
