Bledsoe Family Wines 2023 Walla Walla Valley Cabernet Sauvignon

Tasting Notes

Bledsoe Family Wines’ 2023 Walla Walla Valley Cabernet Sauvignon opens with a deep, polished expression of the valley’s signature power. Aromas of blackcurrant, ripe blackberry, and dark plum rise first, layered with graphite, cedar, and a touch of crushed violets. On the palate, the wine is structured yet supple, carrying concentrated black‑fruit flavors supported by fine‑grained tannins and a vibrant line of acidity. Notes of cocoa, tobacco leaf, and warm baking spice unfold through the mid‑palate, leading to a long, confident finish that balances richness with freshness. It’s a young Cabernet built for both immediate pleasure and graceful aging.
This Cabernet shines alongside dishes that echo its depth and structure. Grilled ribeye, herb‑crusted lamb, or braised short ribs bring out its savory dimension, while mushroom risotto or roasted root vegetables highlight its earthy undertones. Aged cheddar, blue cheese, or a truffle‑infused cheese board also pair beautifully, especially when the wine has had time to open in the glass.
