Upon his retirement from the NFL in 2007, Drew Bledsoe "doubled back" to his hometown of Walla Walla, Washington to realize a long held dream. Drew and his Wife, Maura, purchased a piece of property on the southern edge of the Walla Walla Valley AVA and subsequently launched Doubleback as an estate focused winery with the goal of crafting America's best Cabernet Sauvignon in an elegant, true to varietal way. Drew had long been planning for this moment during his years playing football and success came immediately as the very first vintage earned a spot in Wine Spectator's Top 100 List.
Watching over four estate vineyards within the Walla Walla Valley, each one representing a unique soil series, elevation, aspect, and micro-climate in this small area. Each of these differences bring something truly special to the final blend. We farm these sites with our own incredible team that is wholeheartedly focused on building balanced ecosystems through sustainable and organic farming practices. We take the same focus in executing sustainable efforts to better our people and our own communities and truly believe these practices unequivocally lead to producing better wines.

Robert Parker | Showing power and elegance on the nose, the 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon focuses more on aromas of dark fruits and sturdy oak, with a pronounced minerality. The full-bodied palate shows more complexity than the nose leads on, with a bold and tight structure of dense blackberry and cassis tones that make way for a firm tannic grip. The wine lingers on the long finish with nuances of wet river rock, bitter dark chocolate and graphite. Give this one some time in the cellar. |
