Sourced from the infamous Sagemoor vineyards on Washington’s warm, sun-soaked Wahluke Slope, the 2022 Urban Legend embodies the power and precision of its high-desert terroir. Aged 26 months in French oak, this Cabernet Sauvignon–Petit Verdot–Syrah blend channels deep concentration from well-drained, mineral-influenced soils into a poised, cellar-worthy wine.
Ripe raspberry and blackberry weave with violet, graphite, and a lift of baking spice, framed by elegant oak that adds subtle vanilla and savory complexity rather than overshadowing the fruit. Extended barrel aging has polished the tannins to a velvety texture, carrying a long, layered finish that unfurls with dark fruit, cocoa, and a hint of smoked herbs.
Pair with braised short ribs, smoked brisket, or aged cheddar to echo the wine’s depth and smokiness, or pour alongside herb-crusted lamb to highlight its floral and savoury notes. Crafted to captivate in its youth yet built on the structure, concentration, and balance that will reward patient cellaring for years to come.
