Corliss Estates 2005 Cabernet Sauvignon Columbia Valley, 2005
Stephan Tanzar - International Wine Cellar
The 2005 Corliss Estates Cabernet Sauvignon Columbia Valley
(from barrel) Good deep ruby-red. Deeply pitched aromas of currant, smoke and tobacco leaf.
Broad and ripe but dry, with a suave texture and a deeply sappy quality shown by too few cabernets in Washington. Conveys a light touch and finishes with terrific aromatic persistence. I'm not sure it's longer than the '04 but this is every bit as precise.
93-95.

About 
There is a saying that, "one makes a thousand decisions from vine to bottle." At Corliss, we exercise the discipline to make the highest quality decisions at each stage. From sustainable, meticulous viticulture in our four Estate Vineyards, to individual berry sorting at harvest, to slow native yeast fermentations in micro-scale custom oak fermenters. We follow this with extended elevage of two and one half years in barrel, rigorous selection of the best lots for blending, and over two years of additional aging in bottle before the wines are finally labeled and available for enjoyment.

Our winemaking is the result of teamwork and patience. Michael Corliss has, from the beginning, been at the center. He is engrossed in every detail and has guided our winemaking philosophy. He is our barometer of consistency for developing the Corliss style. Surrounding Michael is a talented staff of winemaking professionals including our on-site winemaking team of Andrew Trio and Griffin Frey (who bring experience and perspective from Napa, Europe, and Australia) as well as Philippe Melka, one of the world's most highly regarded winemaking consultants. Together, we strive to achieve the highest actualization of Michael's vision that this collection of talent enables.

We are grateful for your continued appreciation and patronage of Corliss wines.

Proprietors Lauri and Michael Corliss.
