Northwest wines. In 2009, my brother and I started Christopher Michael. The idea was simple; use our home base in Oregon to explore the exceptional growing regions of the Pacific Northwest. We've never allowed geographic boundaries to define what we put into a bottle. Our wines are created to be fresh, approachable, and ready for any occasion. We have refined our fruit sourcing for this Cabernet Sauvignon to exemplify the type of wine that we love to drink. These vineyards, located within the Columbia Valley AVA, are selected as later ripening sites that allow for ample flavor development and complexity with beautiful acid and moderate alcohols. You will find in this wine notes of black current, cocoa and baking spices. Cheers, Eric Harms, Co-Founder. Please recycle. 1% for the planet.
