House Wine Video Tasting Rating and Review 2007 Washington State Red Wine

---

“House Wine” is a brand started by Charles Smith of K Vintners to be a high
quality everyday wine for the masses. For the most part he has found success
in that goal.
~
The wines have been very well received, gotten good scores and he recently sold the
brand to the Precept group of Washington State. I am not sure if he has remained as
the winemaker.
~
Okay, on the facts. I tasted the 2007 “House Wine” red blend from Washington state.
The Blend is :

30% Cabernet Sauvignon
30% Syrah
30% Merlot
+ small amounts of Malbec, Zinfandel, Petite Verdot and Cab Franc
~
“Kitchen sink” blend they threw it all in there.

My tasting notes :
`
Smell
Floral, Lavender, Black Cherries and Black Currants
~
Taste :
Complex dark Fruits – Boysenberries predominate
Mid Palette a bit Hollow
Light dry finish
~
Verdict — 88 points
~
Price $9 at the Rite Aid the Pearl – Portland Oregon
