2005 Côte Bonneville DuBrul Vineyard...$89.99
A Dry Red Table wine from Yakima Valley, Columbia Valley, Washington, USA
The 2005 Côte Bonneville has everything that the 2004 has and more. It is a more structured effort and will benefit from 6-8 years of cellaring. If you don’t know about this winery, it’s time to get it in gear. Dr. Hugh and Kathy Shiels planted the DuBrul Vineyard a number of years ago and are now making wine under the Côte Bonneville label from their estate fruit.

Rated 95+/100 Wine Advocate
Polished, focused, and juicy, with bright red fruit flavors that mingle appealingly with hints of chocolate and cherry as the finish lingers expressively on a refined frame. There's an elegance to this, and a depth that only becomes apparent with successive sips. Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Drink now to 2016. 700 cases made. - H.S.
Rated 94/100 Wine Spectator
Graceful and aromatic, this 63% Cabernet Sauvignon, 37% Merlot is the top end wine from the estate-grown DuBrul vineyard. It has both elegance and intensity, and expresses power without falling prey to over-ripeness, excessive oak or other tricks of the trade. It captures the fruit and earth and herb of the Bordeaux grapes, tossing in hints of graphite and cedar."
