2006 Trust Cellars Cabernet Sauvignon
Trust Cellars was founded by Steve Brooks in 2004 he was looking long and hard at his CNN career, he happened to read a New York Times article about the burgeoning wine scene in Walla Walla. As he thought about winemaking, he realized that he could not remember being in a winery tasting room that had a single unhappy person in it. Warm, happy wineries were the equatorial counterpoint to the frozen north pole of news production.
Several years later, after a long move west and apprenticeships at Long Shadows and Northstar, Steve had his happy winery. He named it after the one ingredient he needed beyond his profound sense of initiative: trust. To make a move of that magnitude required the trust of his family: their confidence that despite inevitable obstacles, the ending of their story would be a happy one. And it required Steve to trust himself: to believe in his gut; his instinct that this would be a change for the better.
The 2006 Trust Cellars Cabernet Sauvignon is a beautiful expression of minerality, balance and integration of fruit. It's graceful and can be enjoyed now or several years after cellaring.
