Col Solar is a partnership founded in the mid 1990s between Tuscany's famous Marchese Piero Antinori and Washington State's oldest winery, Chateau St. Michelle. From its inaugural 1995 vintage, Col Solare's mission has been to unite these two unique viticultural and winemaking cultures to produce world-class Cabernet Sauvignon from the very best Washington fruit. It is very apparent they are doing an excellent job in the vineyard along with winemaking techniques, they tend to get very favorable reviews and scores from all the top wine critics!
ANTONIO GALLONI'S VINOUS MEDIA 91 POINTS - "Dark and brooding in the glass, the 2020 Cabernet Sauvignon slowly evolves with nuances of red plum, violet pastille and crushed stone. It washes across the palate with ripe wild berry fruits and mineral tones guided by fresh acidity, while a subtle citrus twang adds cheek-pinching tension. The 2020 closes with grippy tannins yet remains fresh, leaving a pleasantly bitter tinge of cedar and clove."
