Tasting note
Canvasback's 2020 Grand Passage should present Cabernet Sauvignon aromas of blackberry, cassis and dark plum, with cedar and sage. Red Mountain fruit is expected to feel full and muscular, firm tannins adding grip while acidity provides definition through the palate. The projected peak lasts to 2031, with the drinking window reaching 2037. A long finish should carry dark fruit and savory spice, then taper toward a dry earthy impression.
