The ripe, supple 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon offers up ripe plum, roasted blackberry, licorice and gamey nuances to go with a medium to full-bodied, decadently styled palate. Easy-drinking, with a rounded, rich feel and solid purity, it will drink nicely over the coming 8-10 years. Drink now-2023. www.abeja.net

More evolved, as well as showing more oak, the 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon Walla Walla is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon that spent 23 months in 60% new and 40% one and two year old barrels. Showing plenty of spice, cedar, tobacco and ripe black currant fruit, with obvious oak, it is medium to full-bodied, open and supple, yet has firm tannin on the finish. The straight Columbia Valley seems to be the more complete wine here, but this should still have close to a decade of longevity. Ken and Ginger Harrison continue to make classy, balanced and complex wines from their estate located on the eastern side of Walla Walla. Tel. (509)526-7400; www.abeja.net
