2008 SHOUP 1.5L

For the past six years, Allen Shoup and Gilles Nicault have been working together to create a wine that will exemplify Washington state's unique ability to grow and produce an intensly concentrated and richly perfumed classic Bordeaux blend.

The 2008 growing season was a bit cooler than usual, delaying veraison slightly, but thorough care throughout the growing season kept the vines in balance and set the stage for an excellent vintage. Weather conditions were beautiful in September and October, marked by the Columbia Valley’s warm fall days and cool nights. The grapes ripened perfectly, and the resulting wines offer lush, bold flavors and balanced acidity.

Deep in color, the 2008 SHOUP is an intensly concentrated wine that offers currant, ripe plum and oak spice aromas. With its opulant mouthfeel and layers of blackberry and minerality on the palate, this wine is equally notable for its rich dimension and a lengthy, textured finish.
