JOSH'S NOTES - 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon
Loving this wine and the 2022 vintage in Walla Walla. Showing off cassis, blackberry, dark chocolate, and dried figs. The growing season was long in the valley, finishing at the beginning of November! The mouthfeel is ultra silky with such a pretty structure and fined grained, glycerol finish - I can’t say enough about how the wine “feels”. There is the perfect amount of oak and tannin on this wine with flavors like plum and raspberry shining through. Enjoy now through 2037!

JOSH'S NOTES - 2022 Stolen Horse Syrah
This could be my favorite Stolen Horse yet - ultra deep, rich purple. Gobs of lavender, garrigue, fresh plums, and olives erupt from the wine aromatically. Really smells like the landscape in which it was grown and reminiscing of my teenage years working in the Loess Vineyard at Leonetti and the lavender planted at each end row. Ultra silky tannins that are rich and round with black cherry, cigar wrapper notes, and a long finish. Enjoy this wine now through the next 15 years!
