Bordeaux Red Blends
Sheridan Vineyard L'Orage 2018
Drink it now or cellar for 10 years. It is recommended to decant it for an hour.
Founded in 1996, by Scott Greer, after a long career in finance, together with his partners Pat and Lanie Dineen, Sheridan Vineyard is located in the state of Washington, near the city of Zillah. Since 2000, when the first wine was bottled, the company has focused on sustainable agricultural practices and the cultivation of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, and Syrah.
Produced mainly from Cabernet Sauvignon with the addition of 20% Cabernet Franc, and aged for 28 months in barriques, L'Orage is the most iconic and representative wine of Sheridan Vineyard, whose first harvest dates back to 2000.
It is an exceptional wine, which shows an intense ruby color with magenta nuances. On the nose, the wine reveals a decisive and layered aromatic profile with spicy dark red fruit, especially plum, blackberry, and sweet cinnamon. On the palate, the fruit is slightly more ripe than it feels on the nose and floral notes and slightly exotic aromas are added. The wine is rich, round, and full-bodied with fine tannins, and a long and persistent finish that recalls dark chocolate. Try it with grilled red meat, Texas-style brisket or spicy pork ribs. But don’t forget to let it breathe for an hour in order to fully release its perfumes.
