"10 TOP NEW WASHINTON WINES"
Small-scale wine moguls Josh Klakring and Jason Baldwin have an unusual business model-you might call them modern-day "négociants." They buy left-over barrels and tanks of excellent wine from established Washington wineries, then do the blending themselves. The resulting wines are well-aged, balanced and extremely affordable. The Surveyor is a Bordeaux-style Cabernet Sauvignon/Merlot blend with a good backbone of mature tannins, deep rich fruit and no rough edges. The Seeing Red and Seeing White blends are a surprising value for quality everyday wines.
