Cayuse, Walla Walla Valley, En Chamberlin Vineyard, Impulsivo Tempranillo 2016 Champagne mineralite and tension98 points Jeb Dunnuck The 2016 Impulsivo is all Tempranillo comes from the En Chamberlin Vineyard and was brought up in 50 60% new French oak. It's a deep ruby purple colored effort and reveals a stunning bouquet of cassis, black cherries, smoked earth, gravelly minerality, and cedary spice. Still tight, backward, and vibrant on the palate, it another one of the 2016s that's going to need 3 4 years of bottle age. (JD) 98+ (4 2019) 95 points Int'l Wine
