Betz ‘The Untold Story’ Cabernet Sauvignon 2021, Columbia Valley, Washington

Everyone has an “Untold Story” buried inside and waiting to be lived. The concept was born from our personal journey and that many ‘Untold Stories’ are often shared around the dinner table over a meal and a bottle of wine. Life should be lived with purpose – 2019 The Untold Story Cabernet Sauvignon is a wine with a purpose. It challenges us to be bold in the face of adversity and follow our dreams, despite the odds. It’s about making a difference! Aging: 19 months, 100% French oak. Tasting notes: The 2019 Untold Story shows intensity the moment it hits the glass with a deeply colored purple core that’s almost opaque. The color speaks to the power of the aromatics: rich black fruits, dark blackberry, plum and cassis swirl about, picking up graphite and crushed herbs with air. The layered palate is hedonistically plush, but still balanced thanks to fresh acidity and a fine tannic backbone. The lengthy finish carries a delightful mix of fresh herbs, crushed berries and spice.
