October 2004 Washington Wine Club

Buty

Yet another clean sweep for a winery, with the Buty wines winning this time!   This month features the fall releases from Caleb Foster: the Columbia Rediviva, a 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 35% Syrah blend, and the Conner Lee Vineyard Chardonnay.   The red is $41.00, and is totally sold out.  There´s a bit of the Chardonnay left at $29.00.  As usual, Caleb understands what makes Washington wine unique, and brings that out in his wines.  He also has a very distinct style to my palate that holds up across vintages, as the very best winemakers should.  I wish these wines were more readily available...
