A rich mouthfeel that is especially concentrated, making for a very serious wine. Notes of toasted oak, vanilla, and mocha. Aromas of black cherry, black currant, and blackberry, with a hint of anise.
Predominant apple and pear notes on the nose, accompanied by minerality and slight lemon rind citrus; very sublime caramel aroma. Similar to the nose, flavors of Granny Smith apple and Bartlett pear are present on the palate. Very nice richness in the mouth; a little bread dough, citrus, and minerality comes through on the finish.
The Sentinel Gap overlooks the Wahluke Slope AVA. Crafted from the most exceptional fruit our Northridge Vineyard has to offer, we craft our Sentinel, a Cabernet Sauvignon-dominant Bordeaux blend.
Discover aromas of bright black and purple fruits with subtle baking spice and oak. Enjoy ripe boysenberry and plum on the palate, followed by velvety tannins and lingering hints of dark cocoa, toasted oak, vanilla bean, and spice for a well-rounded finish.
