Bordeaux Red Blends
Dunham Cellars Trutina 2019
Drink now or cellar for up to 10 years. No need to decant before serving.
This respected Washington State winery was founded by the Dunham family in 1995 in a restored World War II aircraft hanger. Today it has a strong reputation for top quality reds crafted by head winemaker Rob Campisi who cut his teeth under renowned Washington winemaker Dan Wampfler.
Trutina is the estate’s charming Bordeaux-style blend which showcases the brilliance of the vineyards Dunham works with. Fruit is sourced from the Columbia Valley, with an equal focus on Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon as well as a dash of Petit Verdot and Malbec. Once in the winery the fruit is vinified in stainless steel tanks and then aged in oak barrels.
The nose opens with luscious notes of dark cherry, plum and tobacco leaf along with lingering hints of anise, cinnamon and clove. The first sip reveals a punchy full body, firm tannins, and intense notes of crushed wild berries, cherries and ground coffee beans. The long finish and well-built structure make this a great wine to cellar for a few more years. For those with less patience it can also be savoured now alongside beef stews, a prime ribeye steak, or tomato-based pasta dishes.
