Country

United States

Of all the New World wine countries, perhaps the one which has demonstrated the most flair for producing high quality wines - using a combination of traditional and forward-thinking contemporary methods - has been the United States of America. For the past couple of centuries, the United States has set about transforming much of its suitable land into vast vineyards, capable of supporting a wide variety of world-class grape varietals which thrive on both the Atlantic and the Pacific coastlines. Of course, we immediately think of sun-drenched California in regards to American wines, with its enormous vineyards responsible for the New World's finest examples of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot based wines, but many other states have taken to viticulture in a big way, with impressive results. Oregon, Washington State and New York have all developed sophisticated and technologically advanced wine cultures of their own, and the output of U.S wineries is increasing each year as more and more people are converted to their produce.

Region

Washington State

Since it began in the 1820s, wine-production in Washington state has gone from strength to strength, with many of the finest United States wines coming out over the past twenty years hailing from this region. Today, the state is the second largest US producer of wines, behind California, with over forty thousand acres under vine. The state itself is split into two distinct wine regions, separated by the Cascade Range, which casts an important rain shadow over much of the area. As such, the vast majority of vines are grown and cultivated in the dry, arid desert-like area in the eastern half of the state, with the western half producing less than one percent of the state's wines where it is considerably wetter. Washington state is famed for producing many of the most accessible wines of the country, with Merlot and Chardonnay varietal grapes leading the way, and much experimentation with other varietals characterizing the state's produce in the twenty-first century.

Appellation

Columbia Valley

Columbia Valley, a prominent wine appellation in Washington State, USA, stands out for its diverse and expansive viticultural landscape. What makes Columbia Valley unique is its remarkable versatility, producing a wide array of grape varieties due to its diverse microclimates and soils. This appellation, bordered by the Cascade Mountains, benefits from a continental climate, allowing for extended sunlight hours during the growing season. Columbia Valley is particularly celebrated for its outstanding Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Syrah wines. The region's commitment to sustainable and organic viticulture contributes to the overall uniqueness, emphasizing environmental stewardship. The collaborative spirit among winemakers fosters innovation and quality across a range of wine styles. From crisp Rieslings to robust red blends, Columbia Valley wines express the richness of the Pacific Northwest's terroir, inviting wine enthusiasts to explore the dynamic and evolving landscape of American winemaking.

This super-Tuscan style wine began at Long Shadows in partnership with the Folonari family of Italy. It is a seamless, harmonious blend of 65% sangiovese, 24% cabernet sauvignon and 11% syrah. Black cherries, blueberries, suave oak spices and a hint of pepper. Drinkable now, but best from 2027.

Beautiful red fruits, cedary spices, dried flowers, tobacco, and a kiss of leather all emerge from the 2021 Saggi Red Wine, a seamless red based on 62% Sangiovese, 26% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 12% Syrah. With medium-bodied richness, it has plenty of mid-palate depth, ripe, polished tannins, and a great finish. This is one sensational Sangiovese from Washington that readers will love. It should keep for a decade.

Dusty rose and leather tones give way to dried black cherries as the 2021 SAGGI comes to life in the glass. It's soothingly round and pure in style, with ripe wild berry fruits and mineral tones that cascade throughout. Edgy and long, the 2021 leaves a spicy, tannic sensation on the finish.

Wine Advocate

The 2021 Saggi is a blend of 62% Sangiovese, 26% Cabernet Sauvignon and 12% Syrah matured for 18 months in 55% new French oak. It has layered aromas of wild berries, woodsmoke, savory herbs and floral perfume. The full-bodied palate offers concentrated, earth-laced flavors. It’s structured by sandy tannins and bright acidity and has a long, spicy finish. 2,035 cases produced.

Winery Notes

Vibrant and lively, this weighty Sangiovese-dominant blend offers enticing aromas and flavors of red berries and currants with an appealing hint of nutmeg and sweet spice. An elegant and refined wine, its bright acidity pops on the palate with expressive red fruit character that echoes across a long-lasting finish.
