From Washington State’s Red Mountain region within Columbia Valley, Col Solare is championing robust, earthy, expressive Cabernet Sauvignon wines that showcase the region’s terroir. Red Mountain lies in an area once engulfed in the Missoula Floods, depositing fossils into the sand, silt, and loam-filled soils.
The hot, arid terrain with very little rainfall causes vines to dig deep into the earth to find water and nutrients, resulting in concentrated, well-structured, powerful wines. Though the wines are bold, they are also finessed, thanks to cooling evening temperatures that ensure the grapes have freshness.
Col Solare Cabernet Sauvignon is complex and textured, layering woody herbs and toasted tobacco with ripe black fruit, espresso, and chocolate. Enjoy this wine with grilled ribeye steaks, as the tannin will cut through the fat, creating a harmonious pairing.
