title: Brian Carter Cellars 2006 Solesce Red (Yakima Valley)
description: The extra time has helped to unwrap what must have been an exceedingly compact wine, but it still needs to be decanted and/or cellared further. The black fruits are subservient to the dense, tarry tannins. Everything is ripe, but ripe as fine Bordeaux is ripe, with earth and bark and herb still prominent.
variety: Bordeaux-style Red Blend
designation: Solesce
