COMMENTS:
Since its introduction back in 2003 Walking Tree Cabernet Sauvignon has become a signature offering from Geyser Peak. In many ways this wine embodies the spirit of our winery – traditional and progressive, accessible yet exceptional, sturdy but refined. The abundant fruit and bold jammy flavors of Cabernet Sauvignon grown on the western bench of the valley are accentuated by concentrated black fruit flavors from mountain and hilltop fruit. Walking Tree is an exceptionally structured wine that shows soft, supple approachability upon release. - ONDINE CHATTAN, WINEMAKER
