Robert Ramsay Cellars 2012 McKinley Springs Cinsault, $32

June 9, 2015

Robert-Ramsay-Cellars-2012-McKinley-Springs-CinsaultA unique varietal, Cinsault is used primarily as a blending grape, but when Woodinville winemaker Bob Harris tasted the barrel samples from the 2012 vintage, he knew it was worthy of its own single varietal bottling.

Nose: Glorious aromas of wild strawberry, rose petals, puff pastry and mineral spice.

Taste: Lush, polished and pure with silky tannins and crushed pebble minerality that rises up mid-palate. There’s energy and depth to the mix of strawberry, white cherry and wild berry fruit with spice notes on the finish.

Editor’s Choice – Outstanding

Production: 213 cases

Alcohol: 14.9%
