I love the label on this wine. Great design and and an image that's very familiar to anyone who knows Mark or has been to his tasting room in Woodinville. Next step is to take what Joel Gott did with The Show and his movie poster designers and create a label with some rock poster guys to send me right over the edge. Oh, please, Mark won't you? I would love to see more rock-art type labels...the format deserves it. As for the wine, very nice. Great weekday drinker. Nothing overly complex or unique, but something that every fan of Washington wines should have on hand. Solid dark cherry, pomegranate, saddle leather and a touch of vanilla oak. Big mouthfeel, higher acidity than I expected (a good thing) and a long, sustained finish. Well done, Mark. (again)
My rating: 88 / Very Good
