Sandra and I visited the Husch winery last April, on our trip to the Anderson Valley. We wanted to go back to the Anderson Valley, as we love the Pinot Noir’s from Anderson Valley. When we arrived at the Husch winery, we were surprised at the tasting room. Its a barn or storage area. We were tasting with the storage and fermentation tanks. That was just OK with us. We also did notice all the ribbons and awards the winery has earned. That was impressive. We liked a lot of what we tasted and took quite a few bottles home.
To the wine: The nose of the Cabernet Sauvignon was muted and had berries aroma and a hint of strawberry. When I tasted this wine at the winery had a stronger nose. I am suggesting a tighter stemware. The taste of the wine engages 2/3rds of the tongue, starting at the front. The wine pulls hard from the tongue. This wine is a dry wine, but pleasantly dry. The wine has a lot of earthy tones. The earth tones or terrior of Anderson Valley, is very distinctive. This is why we love the Anderson Valley. The finish is warm and lingers and continues to pull on the tongue. The color of the wine was a very dark purple and the wine had no sediment. The legs were very light. We would buy the wine again.
