The Seven Hills Pentad Red 2012 looks and tastes luxurious. This red wine blend is a very dark crimson in the glass, which hints at its complex flavors and aromas. The nose is full of dark berry, with accents of leather, cocoa bean, marzipan, rose petal, and warm roasted coffee. Flavors of cassis, plum, and cherry fruit abound on smooth palate. The tannins are well integrated.
You can enjoy a visit to Seven Hills, and other great wineries, by taking a tour of Walla Walla wine country.
