Another pearl from large, loud and wild-haired Charles Smith, he of The Modernist Project, K Vintners and now, Substance. The grapes for this minimally labeled release come from the higher elevations of Goose Ridge and Freshman Hills and showcase Smith's magic for sourcing the Columbia Valley's most intense fruit. The wine idles for 13 months in 50% new French oak and comes out with its pedal to the metal.
