2019 K Vintners Charlotte Red Blend Walla Walla

JS97 A floral nose of roses and violets with sliced strawberries, fresh red cherries, ground pepper and crushed herbs. Medium-bodied with gentle, silky tannins. Fresh and bright, but turns more savory and complex as the palate goes on. Sage and tarragon mix with ground white and black peppercorn. Drink or hold.
JD94 The translucent ruby-hued 2019 Charlotte is another rocking wine in the lineup. Based on 47% Mourvèdre, 26% Grenache, and the rest a mix of red and white varieties, it reveals spicy, complex notes of cherry, ripe strawberries, leather, sandalwood, and white pepper, followed by a medium to full-bodied, supple, elegant, seamless wine. Very pretty, pure and polished, with fine tannins, this silky beauty is balanced and delicious.
Estate Notes: Beautiful, vibrant, bright, and energetic. Impresses immediately… Wild strawberry, black cherry, and red plum followed by incredible floral notes of white flowers, violets, and lavender, rushing forward into orange peel, black pepper, and crushed rock. Elegant yet resourceful, bold, and brilliant. Blackberry, clove, cured meats, and sea breeze. Both wonderful and intriguing!
