What to do with it: Hold for as long as you can. 10 years? No problem. 20? Sure. Whenever you do drink, decant. Steakhouses use this wine as a foil to determine the best cut of meat. If that tells you anything.

Why it’s worth drinking: Yep, the one you always hear about. Like a wiff of your grandpas pipe tobacco and grandmas fresh baked blackberry pie. Its just a state of the art indicator for Washington wine. Straight up.
