Wine Press Northwest: Spring 2007

2004 Martin-Scott Raven Ridge Red

"OUTSTANDING RED BLEND"
East Wenatchee is where Mike Scott's Winery is, but the Wahluke Slope is home for the Cab(59%) and Syrah (41%). A perfume of red fruit, cigar leaf, bacon and toffee cake guides into a lip-smacking entry of strawberry candy with cherries, moist earth in the midpalate and a structure so balanced that the plums on the back end flow as slowly as a glacier."
