Double Canyon Columbia Valley Cabernet Sauvignon

Double Canyon's Cabernet Sauvignon originates from the Columbia Valley, Washington's largest and most diverse wine region, where vineyards sit on the high-desert plateau east of the Cascade Range. The site's volcanic soils—remnants of ancient basalt flows—and diurnal temperature swings (warm days, cool nights) create conditions that concentrate phenolic ripeness while preserving acidity.

The wine is aged in French oak, a standard practice for premium Washington Cabernets, allowing measured oak integration without dominating the fruit profile. Double Canyon's house style emphasizes varietal expression over extraction, resulting in a wine that balances ripe cassis and dark plum with the mineral spine characteristic of Columbia Valley terroir.

This Cabernet drinks well on release and will develop further complexity over 5–8 years in cellar, as tannins resolve and secondary flavors emerge. A benchmark expression of Washington's ability to produce structured, age-worthy Cabernet at mid-premium pricing.
