The Sentinel Gap stands watch over our vineyards on the Wahluke Slope in Eastern Washington. We use the most exceptional fruit from our best vines to produce the small lots we blend into our Sentinel. This composition comes from low-yielding vines planted in the ancient soils above the glacial flood line at our acclaimed Northridge Vineyard.
The Northridge Cabernet opens with blackberries, espresso, and leather. Large and rich on the palate concentrated with dark fruits and well-balanced tannins. Its deeply layered structure and hint of dark minerality is a signature of Northridge Vineyard. The finish is long and rewarding.
90, International Wine Review! A big, rich mouthfeel that is especially concentrated, making for a very serious wine. Opens with rich toasted oak, vanilla, and mocha. Aromas of black cherry, black currant, and blackberry, with a hint of anise.
Fruit forward aromas entangle with a plush jammy palate. Notes of blackberry compote, fresh raspberry, and a hint of crushed black peppercorn. A luxurious and velvety mouthfeel.
