Be among the first to own a 3-pack of 2018 Trothe Cabernet Sauvignon!
The inaugural vintage of Trothe will be released this September – and with production of this exclusive wine limited to only five barrels, now is your chance to start collecting this wine before anyone else! Trothe wines are sourced exclusively from Andrews Family Vineyards in the Horse Heaven Hills of Washington State. For four generations, the Andrews Family has farmed a 1,300-acre vineyard in the heart of the Horse Heaven Hills AVA. Shaped by a rich, often violent geologic history, this is a wind-shipped, bone dry, and startingly vast landscape quietly revered, yet consistently prestigious, garnering multiple 100-point scores and world-wide recognition. The Family’s approach is defined by respect for the land, innovative farming, confidence in their vision, and uncompromising care in every detail. Having provided grapes to some of Washington’s most acclaimed winemakers, their vineyards have been part of some of the most awarded wines the state has produced.
The 2018 Trothe Cabernet Sauvignon is 100% Cabernet and was vinified using several different methods, each matched to the specifics of the blocks and fruit characteristics. The result is a complex blend that accentuates the individuality of each block. The wine was aged over 22 months in 83% new French oak, followed by 13 months in bottle. The wine is deep, inky red in appearance, with fresh, ripe, crunchy black fruit aromas of raspberry, huckleberry, black cherry, and blackcurrant. Herbal and spice aromas of basil, blackcurrant leaf, licorice, and cloves, alongside an integrated oak character of cocoa and tobacco, add to the complexity of the nose. While vibrant and accessible upon release, the 2018 Trothe will continue to show greater integration and complexity over the next 10 years or more – a singular and outstanding example of Washington State Cabernet for your cellar.
