We really like to blend but coming up with a name can be tricky. To stay with the river theme, we came across “Rivulet” (a very small stream), we liked it, however, it was already taken. So, we added a “T” for three Rivers and made up our own word, “Trivulet”. Our idea was to create a classic blend of Cabernet Franc and Merlot, sourced from impressive vineyards throughout Eastern Washington. These noble varietals marry so well, no wonder this combo has been considered to be one of the best in the world.
Varietal composition: 50% Walla Walla Valley Cabernet Franc, 50% Red Mountain Merlot. 10 months in 50% new French oak barrels; 6 months neutral oak
TASTING NOTES
Luxurious aromas of bright red raspberry, strawberry, and delicate vanilla emerge with the first pour. On the palate, notes of rich milk chocolate are accented with a fresh minerality that leads to a bright, mouthwatering finish.
