About the Vineyard
Airfield Estates is a fourth generation family farm based in the Yakima Valley cultivating a wide range of premium grapes and crafting estate grown wines of exceptional quality. As the name suggests, Airfield Estates has ties to aviation. A portion of the family property operated as a training base for hundreds of Army Air Corps pilots during World War II. The pride, passion, and dedication of these heroes provide a great source of inspiration as we strive to pay tribute to them with our wines.
Blend
65% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc, 15% Cabernet Sauvignon
Tasting Notes
This wine displays gorgeous fruit characteristics of black currant and boysenberry compote intertwined with intriguing layers of cocoa. The palate is robust with secondary flavors of plums and fig with roasted herbs and a hint of black licorice. Smooth tannins and a finish that accentuates the French oak that lingers on the palate.
