JB Neufeld Yakima Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2014

JB Neufeld is a boutique winery located just west of Yakima, Washington in the small town of Wiley City. A labour of love founded by Justin Neufeld, a winemaker for Gilbert Cellars, it is named for himself, his wife Brooke, and his grandfather. The winery was founded as a way for Justin to experiment with different grapes from the Yakima region and explore the terroir of the region through the fruit. Justin says that this lets him maintain the “uniqueness of place” and concentrate on the grapes more than he would normally.

The 2014 Yakima Valley Cabernet Sauvignon offers lots of mulled black fruits, plum, incense, and damp underbrush characteristics in a medium- to full-bodied, round, pleasure-bent style.
