2007 Abeja Columbia Valley Cabernet Sauvignon $43.99

Can I just say that six years ago when I moved to the East Coast this wine was around $20 per bottle. Are you telling me that in six years inflation has made this wine jump almost $24? Something has got to be done in this state or people will never buy Washington wines again.

Great looking color in that it is darker than burgundy. Rich nose of red and black fruit with some good spice and cedar. On the palate it is pretty sharp and right to the point. Full-bodied with rich currant and solid tannins. Funny though it's kind of soft on the finish. Very nice wine but the price needs to be dropped.

Tasted on 11/20/10
