Betz Family Clos de Betz Columbia Valley 2006
Reasonably quiet on the nose on first pour with roasted meats, roasted red pepper, and light herbs. Lighter and more refined on the palate than one would expect for such a dark wine. Elegant with silky smooth tannins. A bit tart right now with some uneven spots. Needs bottle time to come together. Give 2 years. 47% Merlot, 30% Cabernet Sauvignon, 13% Cabernet Franc, 10% Malbec. 41% Horse Heaven Hills, 31% Yakima Valley, 28% Red Mountain. Sampled at 61 degrees.
