Wit Cellars, with tasting rooms in Prosser and Woodinville, Washington has a number of current releases that are certain to please. Here are several recommendations for you to consider:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Wit Cellars 2019 \u201cUnleashed\u201d Sparkling Pinot Grigio<\/strong> \u2013 Delicate floral aromatics, gentle\nlead-off fruit flavors of apricot and apple, and notes of minerality and field\ngrasses fill the glass. The finish is highlighted with bracing acidity and\ncrisp citrus, making it a perfect pairing partner for anything from fried\nchicken to sushi to caviar and sour cream on toast points. It’s a versatile\nsparkler that shouldn’t be limited to special occasions, and a great\nalternative to much pricier Champagnes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mazzacano Cellars 2017 Cabernet Franc <\/strong>\u2013 This incredible wine opens with\naromas of wild berries, black currant, and vanilla wafer, with savory qualities\nof fresh herbs, white pepper, and gamey meats on the palate. The finish\ndisplays compact, dried cherry fruit with a seamless transition into nicely\nintegrated tannins. This is a beautifully crafted, picture-perfect, varietally\ncorrect Cab Franc that lovers of the grape dream about.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wit Cellars 2017 Syrah<\/strong> \u2013 This fruit-forward Syrah, co-fermented with a splash of Viognier,\nexplodes with aromas and flavors of blackberry, blueberry, fig, and spiced\nblack plum. The brambly fruit components melt into a finish with accents of\nwarm baking spices that complement the wine\u2019s luxurious, sexy mouthfeel.\nFlat-out delicious and instantly enjoyable, and the promise of added complexity\nand maturity with additional cellaring time will be worth waiting for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wit Cellars\n2017 Cabernet Sauvignon, Painted Hills Vineyard <\/strong>\u2013 Lively and expressive, a bouquet of fresh cherries and eucalyptus\nimmediately pops out, followed by a savory, umami note. Red fruits dominate the\nflavor profile and are capped with a pleasant sprinkling of Chinese five spice.\nThere\u2019s more of an elegant air to this wine than Cabernet\u2019s oftentimes bigger\nand bolder qualities, and the near-silky finish simply adds to this wine\u2019s\npersona.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wit Cellars\n2019 Chardonnay<\/strong> \u2013 Perfectly\nbalanced and terrior driven, this wine has the Ancient Lakes AVA written all\nover it with a lovely, fresh quality and underlying notes of minerality.\nStarfruit, quince, and Asian pear come to the forefront, with a hint of lemon\ncitrus on the finish. This all-around delicious Chardonnay pairs nicely with\ncheeses such as sharp cheddar and feta, which bring out the wine\u2019s juicier Fuji\napple flavors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wit Cellars\n2017 Petit Verdot<\/strong> \u2013 Spicy, brambly\nberry aromas and flavors lead off and then melt into mellower, ripe Marion\nberry fruit. The slightly chewy finish carries a nice texture along with a note\nof dense black plum, chocolate, and freshly brewed coffee. Bring on the beef or\nperhaps consider serving it with something a little more gamey such as venison,\nbison or wild duck.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wit Cellars\n2018 Cabernet Sauvignon, Elephant Mountain Vineyards <\/strong>\u2013 This newly-released Cab opens with luscious, fresh fruit flavors of\nblackberry, raspberry, and red plum that transition into a layered, lingering\nfinish that suggests anise, molasses, and dark caramel. The standout first\nimpression is how harmonious the fruit, acidity, and tannin components come\ntogether, resulting in a wine with impeccable balance and character.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
