Sorella is Chris Camarda's answer to the question of whether Washington State can make a Bordeaux blend to stand alongside the classics, and this bottle now has almost two decades to make the case. It's the flagship of Andrew Will, a Cabernet-led blend rounded out with Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and a splash of Petit Verdot, drawn from old blocks in the Horse Heaven Hills. Camarda has resisted high alcohol and heavy extraction since the late 1980s, chasing grace and a framework of earth and mineral rather than sheer fruit weight, and Washington's Columbia Valley shares Bordeaux's latitude and dramatic day-to-night temperature swings that lock in acidity. At this age the 2006 is fully mature and drinking in its tertiary window, so decant it and pour alongside a proper meal.

Antonio Galloni

"(71% cabernet sauvignon, 17% merlot, 8% cabernet franc and 4% petit verdot) Bright ruby-red. Higher-pitched and more perfumed aromas than the 2007: cherry, spices, lavender and white pepper. Then sweet, firm and tangy in the mouth, with firm acids framing the cherry flavor. The impression of stronger acidity gives drive to the wine, but it also displays a velvety-smooth texture and conveys a strong impression of extract. Finishes bright, long and firmly structured. The 2007 may be denser wine, but this is serious and long too: it will be interesting to compare these two vintage in six or seven years." —Stephen Tanzer

Wine Spectator

95 points

"Tight, focused and distinctive, this sharp-edged wine shows ripe currant, spice, tobacco and coffee flavors that sneak up on you. They start slow but swirl through the mildly grippy tannins into a long, expressive finish, making for a beautifully compact and complex wine. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. Best from 2011 through 2018."

"All Champoux vineyard fruit, this Bordeaux blend—71% Cabernet Sauvignon, 17% Merlot, 8% Cab Franc, 4% Petit Verdot—is fragrant, textural, and complex. Proportionate and showing a lush panoply of fruits, chocolate and baking spices, it's both accessible and structured for medium-term aging. A lovely companion to the winery's Ciel du Cheval." —Paul Gregutt

Flatiron's Take

From the Importer

What has to say about this wine:

Tasting Notes & Food Pairings

Perfect Pairings

Made for the table: dry-aged ribeye, rack of lamb with rosemary, braised short ribs, or a well-aged hard cheese. The savory, earthy maturity also flatters mushroom dishes and roast game birds.

Tasting Profile

Aromas of cassis and dark plum edged with cedar, dried herbs, tobacco, and earthy, savory notes from age. Full-bodied but composed, with resolved, fine-grained tannins, firm acidity, and a long, mineral-inflected finish.
