One of the most compelling wines from Cayuse in this vintage is the gorgeous 2013 'Impulsivo' Tempranillo, which one of the most impressive of its kind in Washington. The 2013' Impulsivo' is sourced from the En Chamberlin Vineyard and begins intense with aromas of wet stone, blackberry cobbler, Umami, and red raspberry with forest floor accents all coming together and soaring from the glass. On the palate there are vibrant flavors of blackberry, smoked meats, Umami and crushed gravel with green olive and a saline streak. This has incredible minerality and balance from start to finish. I can see developing beautifully in the cellar over the next decade. (Best 2016-2028) - September, 2016 (OB)
