“In 1980, one hundred years after our family began farming in Eastern Washington, we planted the old blocks of Seven Hills Vineyard. Along with my father, Vicky and I founded Seven Hills Winery in 1988. From that first vintage, my goal has been to craft intensely structured, balanced wines that express their vineyard origin. From our oldest Cabernet Blocks, this wine is hand-harvested from the same vines each year. Complex and balanced, it reveals old vine character and the distinct terroir of Seven Hills Vineyard. An expressive core of cherry, raspberry, and red plum with dried herb and floral aromas is framed by firm, dusty tannins and a lifted, elegant finish.”

– Casey McClellan, Winemaker

92 Points Wine Enthusiast – “This wine comes from this vineyard’s original Cabernet blocks planted in 1980. Wound-up aromas of woodspice, herb, pencil lead and dark fruit are followed by concentrated but still supple black-fruit flavors. It’s high up on the hedonistic scale, accentuated by a lengthy finish. Decant to let it open up.”

91 Points Wine Spectator – “Deeply structured yet well-built, with crushed rock, currant and spice flavors that persist toward big but refined tannins. Best from 2019 through 2024.”
