The Woodward Canyon 'Artist Series' began in 1992 with the intent to showcase the finest of Washington State cabernet sauvignon. The vineyards used in the 'Artist Series' are some of the oldest and most well-respected in the state of Washington. The label changes every year with work from different, local Pacific Northwest artists. This wine is a heavier-bodied cabernet, with typical aging 10+ years from vintage.
This chart should help guide you on when to open the 'Artist Series'. Rick believes that most of these will show best with food. Enjoy!
